logrotate config file
2007-12-24 21:54:00
I have searched the archives and elsewhere and haven't figured this
out. I saw one reference to the errors keyword not being supported; I
removed that but still don't have anything working; just errors and a
coredump :-(
Below is my /etc/logrotate.conf:
{prodweb:root}# cat /etc/logrotate.conf
weekly
rotate 5
create
compress
/var/apache/logs/* {
rotate 5
weekly
compress
}
When I run logrotate, I get:
{prodweb:root}# logrotate -v /etc/logrotate.conf
reading config file /etc/logrotate.conf
error: /etc/logrotate.conf:1 unexpected text
error: /etc/logrotate.conf:2 unexpected text
reading config info for /var/apache/logs/* {
error: /etc/logrotate.conf:3 unexpected text
error: /etc/logrotate.conf:4 unexpected text
error: /etc/logrotate.conf:5 lines must begin with a keyword or a
filename (possibly in double quotes)
error: /etc/logrotate.conf:6 lines must begin with a keyword or a
filename (possibly in double quotes)
error: /etc/logrotate.conf:7 lines must begin with a keyword or a
filename (possibly in double quotes)
Segmentation Fault(coredump)
What is the unexpected text? From the man page, these should be ok. If
anyone can help, I would appreciate it. I thought this would be quite
easy!
Thanks,
Gene
