Owncloud log file

[ghost]

I am on a steep learning curve here as I am new to the world of Linux. I am running a virtual Ubuntu Server 14.04 in Windows 2012R2. Owncloud is hosted on the Ubuntu Server and is set up with a CIFS mount for the data.
The server is running fine but I see some recommendations about memory cache in the Administration account and to check the owncloud log file. When I navigate to the data\owncloud.log it only has this line in it:

{"reqId":"c12e5a72359193225318a54c0d09bd84","remoteAddr":"XX.XX.XX.XX","app":"PHP","message":"touch(): Unable to create file /var/www/html/owncloud/data/owncloud.log because No such file or directory at /var/www/html/owncloud/lib/private/log/owncloud.php#48","level":3,"time":"2015-06-01T22:08:19+00:00"}

(Note: The XX.XX.XX.XX is the IP address of my PC where I remote into the server)

What does that even mean and how do I fix it?
Any help greatly appreciated

Hi,

@MaxTorque1
please try to ask such support questions at the forums: https://forum.owncloud.org/

The logfile entry itself (nothing to worry about that) was fixed in oC 8.2 and the warnings in your admin backend are described here:

Hi RealRancor,

Thanks for your response and will do.

By using the find command I have located the owncloud.log file in the mounted data drive and it is 461Mb. Is this normal and can I delete it periodically with harming the system?

I will see if I can find out how to do the upgrade to 8.2
