Hello, I see many php error_log in my server which is of size more than 500M, sometimes 2.3G too. Isn't there anyway to limit this php error_log file? For example: /home/user1/public_html/Blogs/error_log /home3/user2/public_html/some/other/location/error_log /home/user2/public_html/administrator/error_log

  There isn't a tweak or any tool to cull the size of error_log files created in /home/username/public_html directory. You will have to setup weekly cron to cleat error logs files of your all user, Please give a try with the following cron.
  for i in `find /home/*/public_html -type f -name error_log` ;do >$i ;done

  @aaronbrad thanks but I dont think it will work as I am not sure about the exact path of error_log. @24x7server I think I can use it. But it will be good if cpanel provide some feature for it. @cPanelMichael Thanks, I missed that plus there was no fruitful info.
