Hello.  We have recently lost the administrator to our website so the rest of us our stumbling through and trying to figure out DNN.  I discovered that we have a log file on the server called DotNetNuke_Log.LDF taking up 132 GB of space (and growing).  How do we clear this log?

Thanks so much for your help.

This file (.LDF) is the log file for your SQL database.  It will either be in the same folder as your .MDF file or sql server has been configured to place the .LDF files into a separate folder.

By the size of this file it appears your SQL database has NEVER had a full backup or a backup with the TRUNCATE Logs option performed.

Your solution is related to SQL backups.
