File size limit exceeded (core dumped) PHP CLI error

CentOS with Cpanel/WHM installed ("dedicated server"). HDD has 110G available.

This is a command line php error. I cannot find an error log. The specified error log is recording http errors but not CLI errors. HELP.

I've found some information that suggests that there is a log file somewhere that has exceeded 2GB.

I'm looking all over for it and can't find it.

Weird thing: ran the command in my public_html folder and got the error message in my question title:

File size limit exceeded (core dumped)

But when I ran it inside /var I got:

File size limit exceeded

That's weird because I used absolute paths in the command.

var/log has nothing bigger than a few MB. /tmp has nothing bigger than about 0.7G.

I can't find this file and I can't even find an error log to give me a hint. I foud the apache access log but no error log.

EDIT:

I never found the existing log file, but I just created a new one. It successfully logged errors from

Looks like I've come up with my own answer.

I used this to find large files on the system. Ran it from the root directory.

/ # find -maxdepth 6 -type f -size +1G > ~/largefiles.txt

Surprisingly, it only took a minute or two and the results added up to less than a page.

Sure enough, I found a system.log file, located in a subdirectory of one of the siteroots, and it was exactly 2.0GB in size. I truncated it like so:

# > system.log

And now my command is working!
