Hassio crashes when opening logfile

[derjuffi (Michael Schmitz)]

Hi,
my home assistent is running fine without problems. But there is one thing that chrashes the system.
When I try to open a logfile e.g. for influxdb the system makes a reboot. This happens with all logfiles except the home assitant core log. That is the one I find in the folder “config”.

But where are the other log files?
What can I do to solve the problem?
Would it be a solution to make a new installation and restore from a full backup? I assume no.

Hope someone can help me.

Regards
Michael

In a supervised or HAOS deployment your real log is the syst…

Thank you. I will take a look at it.
But how can I fix the problem with the log files? I want to open them again in home assistant.

Assume there is nothing in the files I am interessed in. Can they be deleted and start with a “fresh” journal?
I have my data directory on a SSD disk. Can I use a different linux system to delete the files?

Thank you
