RE: RE: [EXT] Re: [users@httpd] Urgent: Apache log is not rotating after the upgrade

[Srikanth Pippari <SPippari@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Even we have also similar configuration but it’s not working..

 

Our config file: /etc/logrotate.d/httpd24-httpd

 

/var/log/httpd24/*log {

    daily

    compress

    missingok

    notifempty

    sharedscripts

    delaycompress

    rotate 90

    postrotate

      /sbin/service httpd24-httpd reload > /dev/null 2>/dev/null || true

           endscript

}

 

Thanks & Regards

In this case, I switched over to apache 2.4 on RHEL6 because a couple modules on some of our websites no longer supported the base php 5.3.  When I asked why, I was given "Why are you still using RHEL6?" as the reason they would not be supporting my config.  Since your question came up I thought I would throw in my own experience, but I was not using that to question your own RHEL6 usage.

 

For the record, this is our /etc/logrotate.d/httpd24-httpd file:

/admin/var/log/httpd24/*log {
    missingok
    ifempty
    create
    daily
    rotate 28
    start 1
    sharedscripts
    nocompress
    postrotate
        /sbin/service httpd24-httpd reload > /dev/null 2>/dev/null || true
    endscript
}

 

As you see, similarly configured and we get the results I mentioned.

I don’t see such scenario you stated below for the rotation. Do we have any other configuration files to update in RHEL 6 server to Apache log rotation?

 

Thanks & Regards

We have a similar setup and the log actually **does** rotate, but instead of archiving the active log to the next numbered log and renumbering them down the line, it actually instead moves the active log to the next archive number and moves the rest down the line.  So for example, instead of today's log being http24_access_log, it's actually http24_access_log.5 and tomorrow the active log will be http24_access_log.6 until seven days have passed, in which case it will revert back to the expected http24_access_log, and repeat this process over the next seven days.  I have not found a reason for this so far, but I am interested in figuring out whether there is an answer to it other than "why are you still using RHEL6?"

Hello,

 

We have upgraded Apache 2.2 version to Apache 2.4.34 version on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.10 (Santiago) server . After the upgrade the log is not rotating  and we also check the log rotation file config looks good .

 

Can some one help me to figure out the issue..

 

Below is the config details of log rotation policy. Location of the file : /etc/logrotate.d/httpd24-httpd

 

/var/log/httpd24/*log {

    daily

    compress

    missingok

    notifempty

    sharedscripts

    delaycompress

    rotate 90

    postrotate

      /sbin/service httpd24-httpd reload > /dev/null 2>/dev/null || true

           endscript

}

 

 

The config locations are different after the upgrade

 

Configuration File location : /opt/rh/httpd24/root/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

Command to stop/start/restart : service httpd24-httpd start/stop/restart

 

Thanks in Advance !!

 

Thanks & Regards
