In /var/www/web/logs I have an access log that is 7.5GB. Can I purge that?

Your logs should be cycling. Is this a log for a single day?

@jaredbusch doubtful

I know the logs are set to cycle by most applications. No idea how your system was setup originally.
But to answer your question, stop the webserver
service apache stopI think for Debian.Delete the log
Start the webserver again
service apache startThe apache process will recreate a new log.

I'm downloading it now so I can go through it and verify that it isn't all one day. Can I delete it and create a new .log file and go on my way?

It was not for a single day. It was from day 1 of the server life (25-Sept-2015)

Strange, is it doing it now. It should be on your cronjobs daily or weekly.

Meaning I should put it there or it should already be there?

@wls-itguy little over halfway down the page it mentions how lograte shouldbe happening.
Managing Log Rotation Using Logrotate
By default, Ubuntu sets up its own log rotation plan with logrotate.
This program can take parameters and rotate logs when certain criteria are met. We can see what events cause logrotate to swap the Apache logs by looking in
/etc/logrotate.d/apache2:sudo nano /etc/logrotate.d/apache2Here, you can see some of the parameters given to logrotate. First of all, notice the first line is:
/var/log/apache2/*.log {
This means that logrotate will only operate on those logs in "/var/log/apache2". Keep this in mind if you have chosen a different directory for your logs in your Apache configuration.
