David Carlin commented on TS-2925:
----------------------------------
Actually it seems none of the squid.blog* files get rotated after switching to
ascii mode.
I setup a cluster of hosts and let them run in binary mode for a day. I then
switched to ascii. The ascii logs are rotating, but I still have about a dozen
binary logs on each host for squid.blog sitting around not being rotated.
> Changing logging mode breaks log rotation

> Key: TS-2925
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-2925
> Project: Traffic Server
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Logging
> Affects Versions: 4.0.2
> Reporter: David Carlin
> Assignee: Bryan Call
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: yahoo
> Fix For: sometime
>
>
> If you run a server with a logging mode of binary, traffic server
> automatically creates logs with .blog appended.
> If you then switch to ascii mode, it automatically starts appending .log but
> leaves squid.blog on the disk indefinitely. This eats up space that would
> otherwise be available for logging/log rotation activity. ATS seems to
> rotate out all of the old binary logs except 'squid.blog'.
