Thank you very much for your help even though it was not a FOP issue!
I went into /etc/asterisk/logger_logfiles_custom.conf and commented out the line
full => notice,warning,error,debug,verbose
Then I restarted the logger from the asterisk command line with
logger restart
Then I restarted fop2 with the following:
service fop2 restart
and we were up again!
It doesn't look like writetimeout is an option with our version and we did not upgrade to 1.8 yet, but we are on a hosted solution and I submitted a ticket, so hopefully that will happen soon.
Thanks again!
