A few suggestions have been > made, to somehow rotate traffic.out. One possible solution (suggested by > Ryan) is to use cronolog (http://cronolog.org/), which seems like a fine idea. > > > Comment 1 > by Joseph Rothrock 2 years ago at 2007-10-17 09:13:24 > Maybe consider rolling diags.log as well. -Feature enhancement. > > Comment 2 > by Kevin Dalley 13 months ago at 2009-03-04 15:32:18 > When traffic.out gets filled up, error.log stops filing up, even though > rotation is turned on. This is > counter-intuitive. Rotation does not control traffic.out, but a large > traffic.out will stop error.log from being > written. > -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
