I did some more digging on the whole log piping thing and apache includes a
nifty little application called rotatelogs which lives in
/usr/local/sbin/rotatelogs on my system that I built form the ports. From the
man page:
NAME
rotatelogs - Piped logging program to rotate Apache logs
SYNOPSIS
rotatelogs [ -l ] [ -f ] logfile rotationtime|filesizeM [ offset ]
SUMMARY
rotatelogs is a simple program for use in conjunction with Apache's
piped logfile feature. It supports rotation based on a time interval or maximum
size of the log.
It looks pretty simple to use just create your log format directive like:
LogFormat "%t \"%r\" %>s \"%{Referer}i\" %b" SpecialFormat
CustomLog "| /usr/local/sbin/rotatelogs /var/log/httpd-access.log
86400" SpecialFormat
I hope that helps. I know I shall be experimenting with this one tomorrow.
