Hi all, I have just installed Traffic Server 8.0.2 (the version from Debian 10 repositories) and I noticed some problems with logging.
In particular, I would like to rotate the binary log every day at 7.00 AM and rotate even if the file is empty (at 6.55 the daily cron script analyzes the squid.blog file with calamaris script, so I lose 5 minutes of potential traffic, but it's ok). The rotation does not work as expected, and as a worst behaviour, after rotation the daemon keeps logging into the rotated file. Please look at this ls listing: root@it-net-proxy2:/etc/trafficserver# ll /var/log/trafficserver/ total 92 drwxr-x--- 2 trafficserver adm 4096 Jun 1 07:00 . drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Jun 3 00:00 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 trafficserver trafficserver 27 May 27 15:09 .diags.log.meta -rw-r--r-- 1 trafficserver trafficserver 27 May 27 15:09 .manager.log.meta -rw-r--r-- 1 trafficserver trafficserver 67 May 28 11:51 .squid.blog.meta -rw-r--r-- 1 trafficserver trafficserver 8190 Jun 3 16:51 diags.log -rw-r--r-- 1 trafficserver trafficserver 51039 Jun 3 16:51 manager.log -rw-r--r-- 1 trafficserver trafficserver 2472 May 28 11:47 squid.blog_it-net-proxy2.20210527.15h13m48s-20210528.00h00m02s.old -rw-r--r-- 1 trafficserver trafficserver 3408 Jun 3 12:05 squid.blog_it-net-proxy2.20210528.11h51m31s-20210601.07h00m01s.old root@it-net-proxy2:/etc/trafficserver# As you can see, there is no squid.blog file and the rotated log squid.blog_it-net-proxy2.20210528.11h51m31s-20210601.07h00m01s.old has been modified the 3rd of June, even if its title states that it contains logs till the 1st of june at 7 AM. If I restart the daemon, it starts logging into the plain squid.blog again. The log files are quite empty, as the server is in pre-production phase (only one client uses this proxy, with very low traffic). Here is the relevant part of the records.config file, related to logging: CONFIG proxy.config.log.logging_enabled INT 3 CONFIG proxy.config.log.max_space_mb_for_logs INT 10000 CONFIG proxy.config.log.max_space_mb_headroom INT 500 CONFIG proxy.config.log.rolling_enabled INT 1 CONFIG proxy.config.log.rolling_offset_hr INT 7 CONFIG proxy.config.log.rolling_interval_sec INT 86400 CONFIG proxy.config.log.rolling_allow_empty INT 1 CONFIG proxy.config.log.auto_delete_rolled_files INT 1 CONFIG proxy.config.log.periodic_tasks_interval INT 5 CONFIG proxy.config.log.rolling_max_count INT 365 What I would like to obtain is a daily rotated log file, and keep a year of rotated logfiles. Is there anything wrong? Why Traffic Server keeps logging into rotated file? Thank you in advance for any help. _______________________________________ Lorenzo Maurizi Servizio Sviluppo Tecnologico Comune di Jesi
