SunOne 6.1sp5 Log Rotation

Does anyone know if you can tell iPlanet to place archived log files in another directory? Currently the archived log files are placed in the same directory as the access log file. "server_root/https/log/"Thanks

To my knowledge this isn't possible out of the box. but luckily it is very easy to write a script for it. Because the logfiles are timestamped its rather easy to use the 'date' command in a script in order to make sure that you're processing the right logfiles.

Since the actual logrotation is basicly nothing more than sending an USR1 signal to the webserver process its pretty trivial to setup.

I am pretty new to iplanet...do you have an example scrpit you could send me, and tell how to call it. Would the script go in the scheduled.conf file?Thanks in advance.

I don't have any examples available, but this really isn't much of an iPlanet issue but just basic shell scripting where you simply use the "kill" command to send a signal to the webserver process.
