[squid-users] Store log too big

> Hi,

> Today my squid stopped and refused to start again until I renamed my
> store.log. Checking the system log I found the following lines:
>
> Mar 1 16:24:50 bogs201 (squid): logfileWrite:
> /usr/local/squid/logs/store.log: (28) No space left on device
> Mar 1 16:24:50 bogs201 squid[31866]: Squid Parent: child process 31883
> exited with status 1

> Well, I know that the message is very clear but there was a lot of space
