savelogs - Rotating Web Server Log Files
savelogs is meant to be a complete
Web Server Log
Rotation program. savelogs can rename, archive, compress, and delete
(and any combination of the above) as well as provide newsyslog-type log rotation
(see newsyslog(8) for details). Options may be specified on the command-line or in
a configuration file. Besides archiving single logs, savelogs can search your
Web Server Configuration
File and automatically rotate logs defined there.
Installation
To install savelogs, follow the instructions that correspond to your VPS O/S.
Connect to your VPS via Telnet or
SSH and run this command:
% vinstall savelogs
(t)csh shell users may have to rehash their path before running savelogs or
viewing the man page:
% rehash
A sample configuration file has been placed in ~/etc/savelogs.conf.sample. If you
wish to use the configuration file, we recommend that you rename this file to
~/etc/savelogs.conf
before using it (so that if you ever upgrade savelogs you won't lose your configuration
file).
