In order to debug an issue, I've been using the "touch routes.py" trick, and that is a more graceful way of restarting the web2py.log. It appears that autorotates start at about 1,000,000 bytes (but it's difficult to catch the actual turning point). The file used for uwsgi configuration has a log size value of 2,000,000 which fits the size of the uwsgi.logs as rotated by uwsgi. /dps -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
