Bug ID: 63253
Summary: Rotatelogs using yesterday's date in file name on day
of daylight savings change
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.4.38
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: support
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Hi,
I restarted my apache instance today (3/10/2019) and the log file name being
generated is from yesterday (3/9/2019). I am using local time and rotatelogs is
being started like this:
rotatelogs -l access_log.%Y-%m-%d 86400
The file name at 11:AM on Sunday March 10, 2019 (Eastern time) is:
access_log.2019-03-09
I suspect the problem originates on line 392 of rotatelogs.c:
tLogStart = (now / config->tRotation) * config->tRotation;
I think this results in the start time being 11:00PM from yesterday instead of
midnight, today.
tLogStart is used to format the log file name and today (3/10/2019), the clocks
were moved forward, so there is one less hour in the day. I am hoping the
problem will fix itself tomorrow when there will have been 24 hours in the day.
Thanks for your contributions to this project.
Geoff
