Rotatelogs should once again be usable as of 2.2.7. Before, the
brokenness lay in the fact that it would leak stale rotatelogs.exe
processes and cmd.exe shells upon server stop, start, restart or child
process recycling (like crashes). Your config file problem is likely
just that: a config file problem. Your config files should be ASCII,
and there should be no need to edit them with anything more
sophisticated than Notepad.
I have the following invocation of rotatelogs commented out in one of
my configurations:
CustomLog "|d:/httpd-2.2.3-ssl/bin/rotatelogs.exe
d:/cedserver/logs/access-%Y-%m-%d.log 86400 -420" common
Note 1) forward slashes 2) no spaces in the paths (perhaps you can do
that with careful quoting but I didn't have the patience" 3) 24 * 60 *
60 == 86400 seconds in a day (not a week like another respondent seems
to think) and -420 is 7 timezones west of GMT, your mileage may vary.
Yes, that was a typo on my part... was waiting for someone to notice. :)
