Thanks Aaron:After some experimenting...the following worked for me. I think most people will encounter this issue...
What I had to do was to use truncated directory names! Here's the line from my server... #daily rotationCustomLog "| D:\Progra~1\Apache~1\Apache\bin\rotatelogs.exe logs\access%Y_%m_%d_%H_%M_%S.log 86400 -300" common
One more thing...when I did this, the hour, minute and seconds always show as 00_00_00, as in access_2005_10_04_00_00_00.log. Is that what you guys are seeing too? I guess the time doesn't start when you start the server, it treats it as if it's the beginning of the day?

This is a line from my production server httpd.conf. It rotates daily. CustomLog "|D:/WebCore2/Apache2/bin/rotatelogs.exe D:/WebCore2/Apache2/logs/history/commonLog.%Y-%m-%d-%H_%M_%S.log 86400 -300" combined Thanx Aaron N Wagner Monitoring Systems and Network Tools CCO-Command Center Operations 804.515.6298-----Original Message----- From: William A.

If that doesn't lick it, what about using 'bin\rotatelogs.exe'? This might be a very odd case where a shell command's shell doesn't like forward slashes (cmd.exe is picky). I've actually worked out how to nest double quotes at one point, so that the command was quoted (useful for paths-in-spaces and forward slashes.) cmd.exe likes "c:/winnt/notepad.exe" or c:\winnt\notepad.exe and doesn't like c:/winnt/notepad.exe. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
