Is it possible to rotate the apache access_log? 1

[stla]

My apache access_log is currently at 600MB!

Is there a way of limiting it's size to say 5MB then changing the name to say access_log_old and then start with a new, empty access_log file?

The path is:

/usr/freeware/apache/var/


Best regards

Hi

What about the site search on httpd.apache.org, powered by Google ?

http://google.com/search?q=rotate&as_sitesearch=httpd.apache.org

First result : "rotatelogs - Piped logging program to rotate Apache logs"

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/programs/rotatelogs.html
