Logrotate configuration not working

[changlee]

I created the config but when I run it, I get: No such file or directory at every line.

My logs are getting huge. Please advise.

You have to put the full path to the log files in the logrotate config.  Please post the contents of that file...

I created that file:

Code Select Expand

# Logrotate CWP
/usr/local/apache/domlogs/*.log {
        compress
        delaycompress
        daily
        missingok
}
/usr/local/apache/logs/*.log {
        compress
        delaycompress
        daily
        missingok
}

Did you create the file manually via a shell or did you use the CWP built-in facility?

Your missing the very important part.  You need a "rotate" option for how many files to keep.  Add " rotate 1 " as an option and it might work.

I understand nothing. I ask for paid support for a) Updates and b) log space cleaning. I think CWP will need to improve to that.

Change your files to:

Code Select Expand

# Logrotate CWP
/usr/local/apache/domlogs/*.log {
        compress
        delaycompress
        daily
        missingok
        rotate 1
}
/usr/local/apache/logs/*.log {
        compress
        delaycompress
        daily
        missingok
        rotate 1
}

Is that official please? Have you tried that? Thanks for the help.

Try it and find out if it works.  But I know that if logrotate doesn't have a number of backups to keep, it will fail.  Hence why all that was added is "rotate 1", which tells it to keep ONLY 1 backup.  If you need more days, increase that number.
