Here is the relevent portion of my newsyslog.conf

/var/log/httpd-access.log 640  14*$D0   Z 
 /var/run/httpd.pid
/var/log/httpd-error.log  640  14*$D0   Z 
 /var/run/httpd.pid

"man newsyslog" for more info on the fields.
Just a hint in case you plan on running a web statistics program over 
the access log: add 'B' to the flags column for 'httpd-access.log', 
resulting in 'BZ'.  This will omit the 'logfile turned over due to ...' 
lines generated by 'newsyslog', which the statistics program may 
otherwise complain about.

You may need to send apache SIGUSR1 (signal 30) to tell it to reopen its
logfiles. I do this with squid but haven't tried with apache..
There is no harm in trying, you know? It wouldn't blow your box ;)


/path/to/logfile www:www  644 7  * @T00 J /path/to/apache/pid 30
