Tataaaa: there comes httpd 2.2.12+ The usual piped logger syntax uses an intermediate shell with "-c" to actually start the logger. Bill added an alternative "||" syntax in 2.2.12 (see CHANGES) which spawns without the shell. Using the Syntax "||/my/path/with\ spaces/rotatelogs /my/log/path/access_log 86400" I'm able to use rotatelogs with white space in the installation path. Backslash as an escaped worked in the log file name to. Using Solaris and compiling with xpg4 shell for spawning which should not be relevant here, since "||" shouldn't use the shell.
