Huge 27 GB freeswitch log file.

[juan.s...@uc.edu.py]

Thanks for letting me in the dev group. I think my problem should go here. I am fairly new to BBB and have a new installation at my university. We've been testing since november and we are glad with the results. What is worrying me now is that the freeswitch installation that BBB uses, created a huge logfile called freeswitch.log.2 in /opt/freeswitch/log. Its size is 27 GB, and another one of 1 GB. I cant open it, it saturates the server when opening (the 27 GB one). It is safe to delete it?. It seems it is a simple log file that I can delete it. I just need confirmation, 

I wasn't able to find anything regarding the size of the log file. Shouldn't the server delete it automatically?. Thanks!.

You need to check your firewall settings.   if you have a file this big mostly port 5060 is open to the world and your getting bombarded with sip attacks.

if you run /opt/freeswitch/bin/fs_cli you will see the traffic and all the failed attempts

regards,

Stephen

Hi Juan,

To restrict access to only the needed ports on your BigBlueButton server (and thereby block external access to port 5060), see

   http://docs.bigbluebutton.org/2.2/install.html#7--final-steps

Hi to all,

I closed 5060, 22 and other ports. But my log files are getting bigger everyday. It took 1 GB per 2 days. So after 20 days it reaches to 35-40 GB and fulls disk.

What can I do to solve big log files problem?

Sincerely

Hi Omer,

When your BigBlueButton server is idle -- that has no users, can you do 

  tail -f /opt/share/freeswitch/log/freeswitch.log

and look at the traffic you are receiving.  Is it all connection attempts from external sources?  (If so, you may not have the firewall rules set.)

  https://docs.bigbluebutton.org/2.2/customize.html#secure-your-system--restrict-access-to-specific-ports

Try applying the ufw firewall rules as shown in the above link.

Regards,... Fred
