[users@httpd] Wanted: help understanding doc for rotate log

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I've been studying http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/programs/rotatelogs.html
and feel quite confused.

I'm running windows server XP 2003.

(1) Is rotate logs exclusively for httpd or can I use it for my
cygwin/cron/perl jobs that run nightly and generate large log files?

(2) In the documentation they say "CustomLog" and "ErrorLog". Are these
commands I type in at the cygwin/bash command prompt? I get errors when I
do. I don't see any such programs in /program files/apache
group/apache2/bin.

(3) Assuming the answer to #1 is that I can use it for my perl/cron jobs:
how would I rotate my log files every 48 hours? Would I create a cron job to
run once a day to run rotatelogs?

Thanks,
Siegfried
