Apache HTTP Server Version 1.3
Manual Page: rotatelogs
NAME
rotatelogs - rotate Apache logs without having to kill the
server
SYNOPSIS
rotatelogs logfile rotationtime
DESCRIPTION
rotatelogs is a simple program for use in conjunction with
Apache's piped logfile feature which can be used like this:
TransferLog "|rotatelogs /path/to/logs/access_log 86400"
This creates the files /path/to/logs/access_log.nnnn where
nnnn is the system time at which the log nominally starts
(this time will always be a multiple of the rotation time,
so you can synchronize cron scripts with it). At the end of
each rotation time (here after 24 hours) a new log is
started.
OPTIONS
logfile
The path plus basename of the logfile. The suffix .nnnn
is automatically added.
rotationtime
The rotation time in seconds.
