On my webserver I have this file: /etc/logrotate.d/apache2
I know it is logrotating /var/log/apache2/.log
, but if I want to add things that are in /usr/home/www/site1/logs/.log
do I just duplicate everything below and stick that line in there? Each time I add a new site do I need to manually add lines to this file?
Or what is the most professional way to do this?
/var/log/apache2/*.log { weekly missingok rotate 52 compress delaycompress notifempty create 640 root adm sharedscripts postrotate if [ -f "`. /etc/apache2/envvars ; echo ${APACHE_PID_FILE:-/var/run/apache2.pid}`" ]; then /etc/init.d/apache2 reload > /dev/null fi endscript }
