Hi,

 

Is there a way to suppress a ‘duplicate key’ msg  from the errorlog?  Due to a bug in a 3^rd party application,  this keeps on appearing and I am concerned that it will fill up the filesystem.    I can delete  the old errorlog,  but if there is any other meaningful msgs out there, I would lose that too.

 

Thanks.

Not in any way that doesn't also entail the "but if there is any other meaningful msgs out there, I would lose that too." risk.

Stop thinking about the limited problem of removing the excessive messages and just learn how to deal with high-volume log situations generally.  At worse you could a simple log rotation and archive with a cleanup "sed" script that deletes these messages.  Suggest setting "application_name" in order to be more targeted.
