Hi max.bra. Thanks for the reply. If the log does not get big, then I am fine. I was concerned because I am running pi-hole (as well as other lite apps like sslh (not ssl or ssh), plexconnect (DNS for Apple TV) (not plex-media-server)) on my pogoplug low powered unit arm cpu with 128mb ram and 16GB SD. The only issue left I have is the fact that pi-hole-ftl won't always start on the first attempt.
How can I fix that. What info can I get to figure this out.

hi ChuckHL,
pihole log flush does not care about ftl log.
you can mimic pi-hole log flush method: a systemd timer and service with a flush script.
be careful: ftl log file need to be, indeed, flushed and NOT deleted. is this the case why the service no more starts?
and last: why are you in need to flush it? it became to big? after 3 days, mine is 41K, more than acceptable
sidenote: it (the log) is in a tmpfs and it will be recreated every reboot
i'm available to integrate a flush service or a logrotate config.

How do i delete the /run/log/pihole-ftl/pihole-FTL.log automatically every night?
Also, some times it wont start automatically. Also, after running "systemctl start pi-hole-ftl" it wont start until several attempts. systemctl status and journalctl do not show why it failes to start sometimes.

ArchLinux Pi-hole is not officially supported by Pi-hole project. In case of bugs and malfunctions please DO NOT file a report upstream.
First of all check if the wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pi-hole) can help then ask here for assistance and tips.
When it will be excluded that the problem does not depend on ArchLinux we will file a bug upstream.
