How do you manage EspoCRM logs

[Cipher]

Hello everyone,

I’m looking for best practices on how to manage and maintain EspoCRM logs so that they don’t cause the server storage to grow excessively over time.




Currently, I’ve noticed that the log files can get quite large, and I’d like to know:

• How do you handle log rotation or automatic cleanup?
• Is there a built-in configuration or a recommended script for this?
• Are there any safe limits or retention periods you usually apply?

Any suggestions, configurations, or automation tips would be greatly appreciated.

There is mechanism which allow for automatic cleanup. Here you have docs Log - EspoCRM Documentation

Thank you for your answer. I’ll need to do some reading. Is there any documentation on server security, particularly against brute force attacks?

You can watch one of our old videos about security in EspoCRM: How to secure EspoCRM? - YouTube
In documentation you can read this article: Security - EspoCRM Documentation. Especially Security - EspoCRM Documentation
For sure you should consider this params to block multiple fails Config parameters - EspoCRM Documentation

It's possible to integrate mechanisms like recaptcha or cloudflare captcha into login screen, but it's only a part of the problem, because whole EspoCRM is working based on API which is publicly available via /api/v1.
