Logrotate prerotate
Hi there!
I´m using awstats to generate visitors statistics to some websites I
have in a Linux server (Debian Woody). Every night it generates reports
without any problem:
crontab -l
00 00 * * * /etc/awstats/genera_stats
As log files were growing too much, I configured logrotate to rotate
them weekly. As I didn´t want to loose any information, I configured it
so the report was generated previously (prerotate - endscript):
/etc/logrotate.d/webs
/home/*/logs/*.log {
weekly
prerotate
/etc/awstats/genera_stats
endscript
missingok
rotate 52
compress
delaycompress
notifempty
create
}
Rotation is done fine, but it DOESN´T run genera_stats before ... ??
I have reported to the Spanish Debian users list and there is a number
of people in the same situation ...
Thanks for your help. Regards,
--
