sudo vim log-clean.sh

Copy the below content in the log-clean file

#!/bin/bash

sudo rm -rf /var/log/*.gz

sudo rm -rf /var/log/odoo/odoo-server.log

Step 5

Now give the file executable permission

sudo chmod a+x log-clean.sh

Create a cronjob for the file to be executed by its own

You have to specify the time a which the log-clean should execute you can get the time via https://crontab.guru/

Step 7

Edit the crontab file to schedule it

sudo crontab -e
