Hi Folks:<br clear="all"><br>I have a small question on the logrotate function.<br><br>I have a <a href="http://logrotate.pl">logrotate.pl</a> script that does everything that I want to have done to the logs in /var/log/httpd . I found out this week that the logrotate command and my <a href="http://logrotate.pl">logrotate.pl</a> script were working at cross purposes.<br>
<br>Researching this I found the /etc/logrotate.conf file and looked at that. The documentation SEEMS TO SAY that you can modify the behavior of the configuration file by directory. Ultimately, what I would love to do is have the system logrotate command at this point simply not touch /var/log/httpd and let my script handle that. I'm not sure how to write the logrotate.conf file in order to do that.<br>
<br>Would this work?<br><br>/var/log/httpd {<br>}<br><br>I am hoping that this script says that nothing at all is done in the /var/log/httpd directory. Don't touch it.<br><br>Failing that, could I get the logrotate command to just give control over to my script like so:<br>
<br>/var/log/httpd {<br> weekly<br> /scsi/cgi-bin/<a href="http://logrotate.pl">logrotate.pl</a><br>}<br><br>I am hoping that that above section would run weekly and then do whatever is in the <a href="http://logrotate.pl">logrotate.pl</a> script.<br>
<br>Any pointers would be very much appreciated, folks. THANKS!<br>-- <br>Richard "Doc" Kinne, [KQR]<br>Astronomical Technologist<br>American Association of Variable Star Observers<br>1911-2011: A Steady Century Monitoring Variable Stars!<br>
