Php.log: what is the way to clear the log file?

Question

I was looking for a php log file that expanded too quickly and used up a lot of disk space.

What is the best way to clean a log file?

Is it a problem to simply delete the log file? And will this log file be recreated as PHP tries to write it?

On Linux, you can:

cat /dev/null > /var/logs/php.log

It is completely safe to simply delete the php.log file. It will be automatically created the next time you need it.
