When the Qlik Sense Capability Service Logs takes up a huge amount of disk space you have the possibility to clean the logs and to prevent them from growing as big as they were again.
Resolution
You can clean out the folder using the methods described in How To Reduce Log Folder Size Over Time.
After the folder has been cleaned out there is the possibility to switch off the Capacity Service logging:
- Open the services.conf in C:\Program Files\Qlik\Sense\ServiceDispatcher and add the line --log-level=off under the capabilityservice.parameters section.
[capabilityservice.parameters]
--port=${CapabilityPort}
--file="${PWD}\..\CapabilityService\capabilities.json"
--log-level=off
- Save the services.conf
- Restart the Qlik Sense Service Dispatcher Service
The parameter can be one of [info(default) | warning | error | off]
Cause
Logs in the folder C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Sense\Log\CapabilityService are not automatically archived in the Qlik Sense archived logs folder.
Environment
Qlik Sense Enterprise on Windows February 2019 and above
