 How to set /etc/logrotate.d/squid to have good sarg reports?

My system runs the sarg reports at the end of the day, as a separate  
cronjob, and logrotate runs in the very early morning, as part of  
cron.daily.

Viele Gruesse!

So how can you create weekly and monthly reports if you create every
day new log file?

/etc/sarg/sarg.conf
# TAG:  access_log file
#   Where is the access.log file
#   sarg -l file
#
access_log /var/log/squid/access.log

And after rotating you are having only one day in log file, dont you?

I create only daily reports.

For quota etc. I use squish.

 And after rotating you are having only one day in log file, dont you?

That's another problem; I've just seen that rotating doesn't work as  
expected ...

Hi,

I also only do daily around 6h30, all from /etc/logrotate.d/squid:
/var/log/squid/*.log {
daily
prerotate
sarg 21 | logger
/usr/lib/calamaris/calamaris-cron-script | logger
endscript
postrotate
/etc/init.d/squid restart | logger
endscript

Do you have weekly and monthly reports by sarg?

Yes, that may happen.

I've just written a quick and dirty script which deletes all sarg  
directories which are older than 3 months. It's invoked from the /etc/ 
cron.monthly directory, it could be invoked from a simple cron job  
instead.
The only thing you should change is DocRoot.


#! /bin/bash
# loescht alte sarg-Verzeichnisse
# Helmut Hullen

DocRoot=/home/www/squid-reports

sargRef=/tmp/sarg$$
touch -d 'now - 3 months' $sargRef || exit 1

for Verz in $DocRoot/*
  do
test -d $Verz || continue
test -s $Verz/sarg-date || continue
test $Verz/sarg-date -nt $sargRef  continue
rm -rf $Verz
  done

rm -f $sargRef

This script is independent from every logrotate mechanism.
