Shoot me dead if this has already been solved.
Xitami seems to have a hard time rotating the access logs.
Xitami should be copying the current access.log file to yesterdays
date 'ac0x0x0x.log' type of thing, but sometimes it skips days,
and the access.log file just gets bigger and bigger... then it finally =
does it.
I am thinking that when my server is busy, and it is suppose to actually =
rotate
the log file, it can't because the server is being hit, and it is =
writing to the file,
access denied type of thing.
I even gave up having Xitami do it, and wrote a perl script to do the =
rotating for me, but
Xitami won't let go of the access.log file, and I can't delete it to =
start
fresh after I copy the file.
Any ideas on how to get Xitami to perform this seemingly simple task??? =
