Hi, We use cronolog to rotate the apache logs. It causes some problems so I wondering if anybody know the issues and how to solve them. 1. There are 12 cronolog processes running all the time in the background. We only rotate 6 apache logs. And I thought cronolog will only be invoked when there is a log request. 2. The file handles for logs from previous days are not released. So we cannot delete the old logs. 3. Our apache just crashed last night and there is an error dialog says "The application failed to initialize properly(0xc000042). Click ok to terminate the application". The following are lines in httpd.conf for log rotation. #for access and error logs CustomLog "|D:/apache/Apache/bin/cronolog.exe logs/access/access.%Y-%m-%d.log" combined ErrorLog "|d:/apache/apache/bin/cronolog.exe d:/apache/apache/logs/ssl/engine/engine.%Y-%m-%d.log" #for ssl logs ErrorLog "|d:/apache/apache/bin/cronolog.exe d:/apache/apache/logs/ssl/error/error.%Y-%m-%d.log" TransferLog "|d:/apache/apache/bin/cronolog.exe d:/apache/apache/logs/ssl/access/access.%Y-%m-%d.log" CustomLog "|d:/apache/apache/bin/cronolog.exe d:/apache/apache/logs/ssl/ssl_request/ssl_request.%Y-%m-%d.log" \ "%{[%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S]}t %h %{SSL_PROTOCOL}x %{SSL_CIPHER}x \"%r\" %b" #for mod_jk log JkLogFile "|d:/apache/apache/bin/cronolog.exe d:/apache/apache/logs/mod_jk/mod_jk.%Y.%m.%d.log" Thanks, Michael --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
