Re: [Freeswitch-users] Where FreeSWITCH writes some files
Another option for you, ironically, is to have the freeswitch.log file plus the other log files that are not freeswitch's, to go into a third directory that is uniquely set up for this purpose. That way it wouldn't be disruptive to move a bunch of files from log to db. All you'd have to do is modify the logfile.conf.xml file and pick a new path for your freeswitch.log file... -MC On Tue, Dec 9, 2008 at 8:45 AM, Andy Spitzer wrote: > Woof! > > It appears that FreeSWITCH writes > > freeswitch.history > freeswitch.log > freeswitch.pid > freeswitch.xml.fsxml > > to the -log directory. > > Is there a way to put the files other than freeswitch.log into the -db > directory instead? > > In my environment we archive and rotate everything in the log directory > (which includes logs beside FreeSWITCH's), and these other FreeSWITCH files > are getting rotated.

I had discovered this option and considered it as a workaround. Then I also found that mod_xml_rpc was also logging in log dir, and I haven't found a way to control that one--I haven't looked that hard, I must admit. Weekends are a great way to forget everything you were doing the week before! --Woof! ___ Freeswitch-users mailing list Freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-users UNSUBSCRIBE:http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-users http://www.freeswitch.org
Re: [Freeswitch-users] Where FreeSWITCH writes some files
I can't figure out why the log file would need to be in the db folder... /b On Dec 9, 2008, at 10:45 AM, Andy Spitzer wrote: > Woof! > > It appears that FreeSWITCH writes > > freeswitch.history > freeswitch.log > freeswitch.pid > freeswitch.xml.fsxml > > to the -log directory. > > Is there a way to put the files other than freeswitch.log into the - > db directory instead? > > In my environment we archive and rotate everything in the log > directory (which includes logs beside FreeSWITCH's), and these other > FreeSWITCH files are getting rotated.

It's these files: freeswitch.history freeswitch.pid freeswitch.xml.fsxml That I feel would be better off in the db folder. They are not logs, and should not be rotated. --Woof! ___ Freeswitch-users mailing list Freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-users UNSUBSCRIBE:http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-users http://www.freeswitch.org

So it IS a database. It may also be seen as a log of commands, as it happens to be a nice ASCII file, but that's an intended side effect of the way the library writes it. --Woof! ___ Freeswitch-users mailing list Freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-users UNSUBSCRIBE:http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-users http://www.freeswitch.org
