Well, any 1.3.x Red Hat Linux 7.x apache will crash as soon as one of its log files has reached 2GB... if that's after 5 days, it isn't that bad, as I've had to change log rotation to be performed twice a day on many servers since 2GB often took less than 24h to reach. I had a bugzilla entry for this one... never got fixed, though :-( Matthias -- Clean custom Red Hat Linux rpm packages : http://freshrpms.net/ Fedora Core release 0.95 (Severn) - Linux kernel 2.4.22-20.1.2024.2.36.nptl Load : 0.23 0.52 0.73 -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
