SnoopDOS with Output File Limit
Dear all!
My Amiga freezes regularly and, although I have my idea of the culprit ![]() ![]() My problem is that I cannot tell SnoopDOS to keep an output file of a limited size, so after a short while, it just fills up my RAM disk with its log ![]() I am currently considering adding a CRON task that would erase SnoopDOS log file every minutes ![]() Thanks! Yann |

Write the log to harddrive.
With PFS3 you can have a special type of file (it's called rollover file IIRC) with a limited size. The beginning is automatically cut off while you write to the end. Ideal for your purpose. |

Thanks a lot Thomas!
I don't want to write on the hard disk because my Amiga freezes and I don't know what it would do to the disk validation... I didn't know about PFS3 and rollover files, I am going to investigate that! Cheers! Yann ![]() |

I found a version of PFS3 on Aminet, v5.3, which seems different to the one advertised on the Web...
So, because I wasn't sure, I also look on Aminet and found several "log file managers"... I think that one of them (maybe Lumberjack or LogSizer) with EZCron will do the trick ![]() Cheers! Yann ![]() |

Beside MuForce do you run MuGuardianAngel too? Of did you found the freeze causer already?
If you write a log to RAM it is lost after freeze. Do you use a RAD to solve that? I guess you know it already but you can config SnoopDOS to what it shall log and what not. Including tasks. |

Hi daxb!
It seems that the freeze was due to my using THTTPd with an "incompatible" version of the ixemul.library. I now use v63.1 (size: 303,612 bytes) and everything is running okay! ![]() Cheers! |
