Deleting CFMX log files

ColdFusion Add comments

Another hour goes by….another bug submitted to MM. It seems that deleting log files from within the CFMX administrator is a little flakey if not a nonstarter. In restoring all these car files I’ve ended up with a heap of log files listed but I can’t get rid of the things without deleting them from the physical disk. It prompts ‘Are you sure you want to delete?’ but when you click OK it just refreshes the page.

EDIT: And further to that you need to stop the service to be able to delete the files!

    I came accross this, and didn’t even think about it being a bug. I just figured it was a windows ‘feature’ that I wasn’t used to seeing.
