Hi,
I'm new to Apache and I've tried the rotatelogs.exe process for error logging but seem to be having an issue with logs not being created.
Can anyone see a problem with the following that is placed in the httpd.conf file:
| Code: |
ErrorLog '|"C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/bin/rotatelogs.exe" "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/History/ErrorLog.%d-%m-%Y_%H_%M_%S.log" 86400 -300'
CustomLog '|"C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/bin/rotatelogs.exe" "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/History/AccessLog.%d-%m-%Y_%H_%M_%S.log" 86400 -300' common
|
any advice would be greatfully received. |

I think it is the occurrence of two times "..." that it might make not work.
You should try:
| Code: |
ErrorLog "|C:/Program Files (x86)/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/bin/rotatelogs.exe C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/logs/History/ErrorLog.%d-%m-%Y_%H_%M_%S.log" 86400 -300"
|
Further I think it should also work to use a shorter path, since apache knows itself in the Apache2.2 (in your case)folder.
| Code: |
ErrorLog "|bin/rotatelogs.exe logs/History/ErrorLog.%d-%m-%Y_%H_%M_%S.log 86400 -300"
CustomLog "|bin/rotatelogs.exe logs/History/AccessLog.%d-%m-%Y_%H_%M_%S.log 86400 -300" common
