Description Mike Fleetwood 2002-05-26 18:35:59 UTC

Log files /var/log/httpd/ssl_engine_log and /var/log/httpd/ssl_request_log
are not rotated.  This problem effects apache versions 1.3.20-16 (RH 7.2)
and 1.3.23-11 (RH 7.3).  Apache 1.3.19-5 (RH 7.1) actually did rotate
ssl_request_log, after bug #21227 was fixed, but this was lost when the 5
separate log rotate clauses were merged into one.
 
Suggest changing the first line of /etc/logrotate.d/apache from listing the
full path of the current 4 log files:

    /var/log/httpd/access_log .../agent_log .../error_log .../referer_log {

to using a file pattern to match all log files and adding the notifempty
option like:

    /var/log/httpd/*_log {
        notifempty

This matches the style of log rotation control used for samba 2.2.3a-6
(RH 7.3).

This is fixed in the mod_ssl package for Apache 2.0, in the Limbo beta; thanks
for the report.
