Paul, I do not have permission on deleting error_log file, and it's growing very fast. I have claimed my host provider and said that my script is setting it read-only. Could it be changed in order allow it to be deleted?

The script doesn't even know where your server keeps an error log file, as it's different on every server. Nor does the script ever attempt to write anything to any error log file let alone change permissions of it -- in fact, on my local setup I never get any error log because my apache configuration is not set to tell php to generate such files.
The issue with your host could be something like not using phpsuexec or some other apache equivilant (I think there's a module needed to let apache run under a user's id), resulting in log files created by apache belonging to apache's user id instead of your own, and thus not being editable for you.
