Cisco eStreamer App for Splunk: How can I change the location where perl script logs go?

Hi at all,
I installed Cisco eStreamer App and it runs good.
I have only a problem: perl script put its logs in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/estreamer/logs and it's saturing my filesystem:
is it possible to change this path? how?
Otherwise the only solution is a script that deletes old files.

Thank you.
Bye.

Path Finder

Good Evening Giuseppe,

On your linux system, you can try using grep in order to search for all instances of that folder path.

grep -r "/etc/apps/estreamer/logs" /.

After you find the file(s), you can edit them for a path you would prefer to use.

Hi rajindurbal,
thank you for your answer, but my problems isn't the logs location, the problem is that I don't know how to change this setting in eStreamer for Splunk App, in other words, where is (if present)a configuration file to change the App's logs location.
I'd like to put this App's logs outside Splunk folders.
Bye.
Giuseppe
