[asterisk-users] asterisk at 100% CPU, 1000's of log files

[Adrian Marsh]

Hi All,

Twice now in the past few weeks I've walked into the office to find that
our 1.2.24 Asterisk process is sat at 100%, and that hundreds of
thousands of log files in /var/log/asterisk exist, all at 312 bytes,
containing:

Aug 29 23:22:17 VERBOSE[24303] logger.c: Asterisk Event Logger restarted
Aug 29 23:22:17 VERBOSE[24303] logger.c: Asterisk Queue Logger restarted
Aug 29 23:22:17 VERBOSE[24303] logger.c: Rotated Logs Per SIGXFSZ
(Exceeded file size limit)
Aug 29 23:22:17 WARNING[24303] format_wav.c: Unable to find our position

Stopping/starting A*k seems to reset things ok...
