how to rotate access logs in apache

[shantec]

i'm trying to rotate my access logs, so that i have it parsed by date, as a different file, each day.

i have written this in my httpd.conf, by altering this line, but didn't work.


TransferLog /path/to/logs/access.log
#TransferLog "|rotatelogs/path/to/logs/access.log 86400"

and what is a good opensource apache web log analysis program other than webalizer?also customizable

i would certainly appreciate your help,

shann

RedHat uses logrotate for log rotation. You can also add some statement to appropriate configuration file for this program to rename files to your desired form.
