Seems to be tons of action logs!
In one day we got 5310385 logs to purge?

$ sudo su -s /bin/bash -c "/usr/share/php/passbolt/bin/cake passbolt action_logs_purge --dry-run -r 1" www-data

Hey @cadirol, you can use action_logs_purge command to delete unnecessary action logs.

See: https://www.passbolt.com/docs/hosting/troubleshooting/purge-action-logs/

Hy @ishan
Thank you very much to get in touch with me!
i did the cleanup with action_logs_purge, but i discovered 5310385 in 4 Days! See my last post
I think the solution must be, to reduce the log amount.
What can be done, to get less Logs?
