The root cause problem is the presence of the debug lines there, leading to the huge logs. Those lines are NOT enabled by default, so someone there had to enable them. That's easily solved: see the isapi_redirect.properties file in the same folder, and change log_level to info.

** Upate since posting: as for the rest of what I write here, I missed that Mary was running Apache rather than IIS. While the concepts are the same, the filenames and config elements are different. I correct these in a subsequent reply to here, when she pointed that out in response to this reply. **

Second, the file doesn't have to be allowed to grow unchecked--though that IS indeed the default configuration. Instead, that same file has settings that can control the max size and automatic rotation of that log. For more, see the "log rotation" section of the Tomcat isapi redirect docs, at https://tomcat.apache.org/connectors-doc/reference/iis.html

The same page also discusses the log_level setting I'd mentioned above, and still more that may interest you.

Once you make these changes, restart IIS (not CF). In fact, I'd suggest that while IIS is stopped you should rename the isapi_redirect.log, so that a new one would be created starting at 0 bytes. You can keep the old one or delete it later.

Let us know how things go.
