Create a different file under /etc/logrotate.d (perhaps name it
"phplog", doesn't really mater though) and add the appropriate
configuration options. I used this website to help me with the
necessary options (though the man page is more than sufficient as well):
http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2010/07/logrotate-examples/
Here is a custom logrotate conf I created for my catalina logs:
[root@390405-web1 images]# cat /etc/logrotate.d/tomcat
/opt/apache-tomcat-5.5.34/logs/catalina.out {
daily
copytruncate
delaycompress
missingok
postrotate
/root/bin/catlog_mv.sh
endscript
}
If you were wanting to rotate according to the size of the file (perhaps
512MB, whatever works for you though) owned by apache, you might create
a file under /etc/logrotate.d/ containing something like the following:
/var/log/php/php_errors.log {
size 512MB
create 644 apache apache
missingok
compress
}
There's all kinds of other options you can add as well. Read the
article I linked earlier and/or the man page, it's really pretty
trivial. Good luck :)
