#718: Logrotate not configured correctly
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Reporter: wildintellect | Owner: sac@…
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: major | Milestone:
Component: Systems Admin | Keywords: logs logrotate awstats
---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
Possibly a relic of old configurations most but not all vhosts on the
projects vm (and likely all our other machines) use _log for their apache
log file name.
The problem is that in Debian based distros Logrotate is only configured
to look for *.log. So we now have multi GB log files filling our machines
that have not been rotated and compressed.
On Projects I temporarily add *_log and have started a forced rotate
(using nice -n 19).
I would like feedback on if we should just add that configuration to all
the machines or if we should clean out _log and replace with .log in the
vhost files (and rename the existings logs).
I'm not going to touch the awstats ticket until we resolve this.
