I've read the documentation
- I'm running the latest version of Tube Archivist and have read the release notes.
- I'm beta testing and am running the latest unstable build.
- I have read the how to open an issue guide, particularly the bug report section. I've double checked that I don't open a yt-dlp issue here.
Operating System
Unraid
Your Bug Report
Describe the bug
/var/log/nginx/access.log was nearly 30gb when it triggered my docker storage warning in unraid. It does not appear to rotate, unless it was able to reach ~30gb in size in ~five days since last weekly container update/restart.
Steps To Reproduce
Run TA in unraid from bbilly1/tubearchivist:latest image.
Expected behavior
Rotate and compress nginx logs or don’t log from nginx or configure a volume to redirect log storage.
Relevant log output
# tail /var/log/nginx/access.log

Loving TA so far. If bbilly1/tubearchivist:latest is not an official image I will redirect my focus on this issue.
Thanks!
