Re: Re: Apache 2.2.3 rotatelogs.exe on Windows

Hi

I have tested 2.2.3, 2.2.4 and 2.2.6 with following directive on WindowsXP.
 -----
 ErrorLog "| c:/apache2/bin/rotatelogs.exe c:/apache2/logs/%Y%m%d_error.log 86400"
 -----

Somehow I can't start 2.2.4 httpd.exe from tray icon.
 ------
2.2.3 : Server starts 2.2.4 : Server starts when executed directory from httpd.exe (not from tray icon)
 2.2.6 : Server starts
 ------


Also, I have traced how ErrorLog directive handles "| rotatelogs.exe" line.
When "|" is found, httpd.exe creates NamedPipe and executes rotatelogs.exe from cmd.exe. At this point, output and input are changed like, ------
 httpd.exe -> (NamedPipe) -> rotatelogs.exe (-> error.log)
 ------

In addition, by using Windows Process Monitor, I have found rotatelogs.exe is writing to the current error.log file, but not old error.log file. rotatelogs.exe is really suspicious to me.

Any help are appreciated.
I would like to delete old error.log files without stopping Apache

I've been trying to figure out how to rotate the error log in a Windows
environment.  I'm rotating the access logs in the vhost config file as
follows:

<IfModule log_config_module>
    LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\"
\"%{User-Agent}i\"" combined
    LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b" common
    <IfModule logio_module>
      # You need to enable mod_logio.c to use %I and %O
      LogFormat "%h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b \"%{Referer}i\"
\"%{User-Agent}i\" %I %O" combinedio
    </IfModule>
    CustomLog logs/cob/access-log-%Y-%m-%d.log combined
</IfModule>

<IfModule log_rotate_module>
    RotateLogs On
    RotateLogsLocalTime On
    RotateInterval 86400
</IfModule>


And I'm successfully logging errors by configuring the http.conf file as
follows:

LogLevel info
ErrorLog c:/apache2/logs/error.log


However, I'm unclear how to rotate the error logs.  I tried using this
directive but the server wouldn't restart.  I couldn't refer to the error
log to see what might be wrong with this directive because it applies to
the error log:

ErrorLog "| c:/apache2/bin/rotatelogs.exe c:/apache2/logs/%Y%m%d_error.log
86400"

If someone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.

Thanks
