[Asterisk-Users] Logrotate

[Hilton Williams]

Hi

Asterisk at Home uses the following file:

/var/log/asterisk/*log {
   missingok
   rotate 5
   weekly
   create 0640 asterisk asterisk
   postrotate
       /usr/sbin/asterisk -rx 'logger reload' > /dev/null 2> /dev/null
   endscript
}
/var/log/asterisk/full {
   missingok
   rotate 5
   daily
   create 0640 asterisk asterisk
   postrotate
       /usr/sbin/asterisk -rx 'logger reload' > /dev/null 2> /dev/null
   endscript
}
/var/log/asterisk/cdr-csv/*csv {
  missingok
  rotate 5
  monthly
  create 0640 asterisk asterisk
}


It connects to the running asterisk and issues the command "logger reload".

Regards
Hilton

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Logrotate


I created some scripts to logrotate.  I am having a problem.  After I do
it, I am sending kill -HUP to the process
its not using the newly created messages file again.  Could someone help
me out with how I can rotate asterisk's
log's without killing the process?
