Very Large Log file

I caqnt see them in the dashboard anymore and im guessing its because of there size. Any way to tell it to create a new file after it reaches a certain size? Debugging is off

The server creates a new log file every time it is restarted. You can restart and then delete the older logs.

Back in the early alpha days, I'm sure there was a scheduled task that could be configured to start a new log - which by default started a new log every 24 hours. Not sure where that went.

Ok...so i would have to reboot every night to keep the log small...thats not a really good solution..i hope there is something put in place down the line

Well, you don't need to reboot - just click the restart button in the Web UI which just restarts the MB server process.

If you are running Media Browser as a service, you can use net stop and net start commands in a batch file to do this as well. Then you can use a scheduled task to restart Media Browser while you sleep.

Yeah thats what i figured i would have to do but i think the extreme log file size is due to this error repeating itself non-stop

No, we automatically start a new log file every day.
