Hello,

I saw 1 file : log.msql.mesg
in {BSE}/log directory on the server.

We are on Win NT having Ms-Sql Server as database.

When this file gets appended ?? I mean when is information recorded in this file, the size of this file on my server is 110 mb. Can i delete it and place a new file with the same name.

I suspect it must be trapping some error message which Sql Server might be throwing, can i safely truncate it ??

Regards

Learner

Hi Learner,

the file you mention is probably the sql server messages file. To verify this you could start the sql enterprise manager and look at the messages. Delete the messages en see if the file shrinks.

On the microsoft website is some information available, see URL.

Enterprise Manager (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/howtosql/ht_servpem_7cc3.asp)
