    Hello,

    Is there a command that I can run from the command line for my vps, that will list all of the error_log files on the vps, with how much space each one takes up?

    Kind regards,
    Anthony

    I found a way to find all client error_logs over 10MB:

    find /home -type f -size +10000k -name "error_log"

    Indeed "find" command does the job.

    Hello :)

    You could also try a command such as:

    Code:
    find /home -type f -name "error_log" -print0 | xargs -0 du -sh
    Thank you.
