Collabora: Daemon.log and syslog suddenly exploding in size to many GBs

Thank you very much for this report and discussion! I ran into the same problem.

Following the recommendations found here

  1. I removed the culprit (Collabora Online) and restored it from the pre-upgrade backup (22.05.14.3~ynh2).

  2. Managed to save space by emptying the syslog by the following command:

sudo sh -c 'echo > /var/log/syslog'

And the demon.log with:

sudo sh -c 'echo > /var/log/daemon.log'

Things have returned to normal. :slight_smile:
