This from the web-page: "I initially aasumed a long runinng process but it seems people are using this module as part of short running CGI programs. So, now we look at the last modified time stamp of the log file and compare it to a previous occurance of a DatePattern, on startup only. If the file stat shows the mtime to be earlier than the previous recurrance then I rotate the log file."
Which I take to mean it does do invocation-like rollovers. If this doesn't work, I'll resort to a custom file appender. I see what you mean about the valid date patterns. Implement in haste, repent at leisure. Also, apologies for the stupid .sig. I have no control over it.

You probably need something like a custom file appender for this. -- Mike Mike Schilli m...@perlmeister.com **************************************************************** The operating companies affiliated with Atradius N.V.
