Hi, guys, Here is the principle of a log rotation method wich can rotate the log without << holding >> the kannel, which may be convenient.
I have written a perl script wich copies the current log file to some other name and then copies an empty file to the current log file. Thus, there is no need to hold or pause the activity of Kannel. This works for Kannel any version and Fedora Core 3. Untested in other environments. Hope it helps.

I am making a log rotate each day for convenient archive, I suggest you not to have to much big log file in order not to slow down your system. Hope that help Regards ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: Djiby SY [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: mercredi 10 octobre 2007 02:21 To: Rolandow Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: Logrotate.d Hi Rolandow, Here is my logrotate.d script for kannel log files /your_path/kannel.log /your_path/sqlbox.log /your_path/smsbox.log { daily missingok rotate 100 size=50M compress delaycompress olddir /your_path/oldlogs notifempty create 640 root root sharedscripts postrotate killall -HUP bearerbox sqlbox smsbox || true > /dev/null 2> /dev/null endscript } Hope it helps. Regards -- Djiby Rolandow a écrit : Hi All, Could somebody post his (working) logrotate.d script? I am rotating my logfiles, but after the rotation, Kannel doesn't seem to write them anymore. Currently I let logrotate create the new script after logrotation. How can I logrotate the logs without interrupting Kannel?
