Do a backup.  This should clear your logs.
 

thanks joblack23

I have done a fullbackup on the DB's using management studio as well as the transaction logs which hasnt changed anything.

My backupexec is on same server as sharpoint DB and I have 0 c: drive space so I cant get the backup services to even start.

USE DatabaseName
GO
DBCC SHRINKFILE(<TransactionLogName>, 1)
BACKUP LOG <DatabaseName> WITH TRUNCATE_ONLY
DBCC SHRINKFILE(<TransactionLogName>, 1)
GO

Do you try the shrink command?

thank you ehaze for your responce,

I have found that all of my db's and logs are on a different drive except these logs:C:\Program Files\SharePoint Portal Server\Logs

Are these transact logs or something else?  
 

By default SharePoint will write to your C drive.

SharePoint 2010:
{Central Administration > Diagnostic Logging)
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS

SharePoint 2007:
{Central Administration > Operations > Diagnostic Logging)
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\LOGS


When setting up a new server, I like to point the SharePoint logs at another drive.  More than once I've had to deal with SharePoint filling up a C drive with files.

we have wss 3.0

the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\LOGS are not very big.

Im at a loss how to get some room again on c
I have no idea what these logs are that are eating up 10 gig

 

Try searching for on your C drive for .log files?


You had look at your search index?
Search might have went nuts and crawled a bunch of stuff...

Not sure how your server is setup. If you have SharePoint on the same drive as C or any other drive with a bit more space and you partitioned it, you can use a EASEUS partition master to shuffle space from a different drive.

I've been in the exact same thing as you except my backup failed to work for a long time and didn't realize it until it was too late. I used EASEUS to get more space and then I did a full backup.  Problem solved.

If you have it setup on a physical drive by itself you are out of luck unless you can move/delete transaction log.  

Also if you don't know what is eating up your drive space get Disk Space Manager. free for 14 days i think
 

joblack23,

I used the Disk Space Manager and the two bigest eaters of space are the backup exec catolog files and the same back up directory for share point I have been asking about but still dont know what they are or how to remove.

C:\Program Files\SharePoint Portal Server\Logs
SPS_00000148_SPSWRAPPER.LOG
SPS_00000148_SPSWRAPPER.OLD

I moved a couple of the backupexec catologs to make room and can now run backupexec.  I ran ful backups of the DB's and logs with backupexec but still no change.  what do I need to do here?

thanks

Wait.. that makes sense. We weren't talking about backupexec. This doesn't do anything to sharepoint and TLs.   You have to run sharepoint backup from the central admin.  This will fix your problem for sure if the backup finishes.
 

I have run the backups for sharepoint from the central admin browser I did a full backup of the farm and they all finished without error but nothing changed.

You simply cant delete the log files??

You can delete the <b>SharePoint</b> log files without any impact to the farm.

True or false.

the sharepoint log files are eating up all your space?

ehaze,

I dont know if I can delete them or not thats what I need to find out.

I dont understand this: the <b>SharePoint</b>

Yes these logs are eating up my space:
C:\Program Files\SharePoint Portal Server\Logs
SPS_00000148_SPSWRAPPER.LOG
SPS_00000148_SPSWRAPPER.OLD

thanks

 

(thought i replied to this thread last night)

Yes, delete all of the sharepoint logs.
