18 gb log files, are they normal?

[matt01y]

Hi all

was doing some routine cleanup, and saw that aw had a fairly large log file.

when i looked into it it just had the same repeating (8148 times to be exact) error in it, namely BrokenPipeError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe

i have 2 questions:

1. is it okay to remove this file?
2. do i have to do something to prevent this from happening?

thanks for the help.

1. It's completely fine to remove this file, as it's only a log file
2. Actually, it was fixed recently: aw-watcher-windows: Broken pipe #756 (comment)
