Subject: Rotating or deleting procServ log files

Ralph,

 

procServ log files sometimes get very large, so we would like to rotate them, and or delete them and start a new one without restarting the procServ process.

 

Is this possible?  I found that if I rename the log file procServ just kept writing to the renamed file.  If I delete the log file procServ does not create a new one, it just silently continues without logging anything.

 

Is there a correct way to replace the current log file without restarting the procServ process?

 

This is procServ 2.6.0.

 

Thanks,

Mark
