I use the following logrotate script successfully with Trac:
/var/log/apache2/*log /mnt/TracRoot/*/log/*log {
missingok
notifempty
sharedscripts
postrotate
/etc/init.d/apache2 reload > /dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
All of my Trac installations live under /mnt/TracRoot/<PROJECT_NAME>/
That script is taken directly from Gentoo, so YMMV with that
particular init script call. In Gentoo, `/etc/init.d/apache2 reload`
basically calls the following:
/usr/sbin/apache2 <assorted apache options here> -k graceful
"-k graceful" tells Apache to close all its daemons when their
current request is completed, and to close and reopen all logfiles.
Even though Trac isn't technically a part of Apache itself,
mod_python seems to get the idea. The end result of running that is
a new trac.log in /mnt/TracRoot/PROJECT/log as well as trac.log.
[1-5].gz as I have logrotate setup to compress and keep five old logs.
I have no idea if that works if you're not using mod_python.
Hope that's helpful at least.
