Hi
Asterisk@Home uses the following file:
/var/log/asterisk/*log {
missingok
rotate 5
weekly
create 0640 asterisk asterisk
postrotate
/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx 'logger reload' > /dev/null 2>
/dev/null
endscript
}
/var/log/asterisk/full {
missingok
rotate 5
daily
create 0640 asterisk asterisk
postrotate
/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx 'logger reload' > /dev/null 2>
/dev/null
endscript
}
/var/log/asterisk/cdr-csv/*csv {
missingok
rotate 5
monthly
create 0640 asterisk asterisk
}
It connects to the running asterisk and issues the command "logger
reload".

I created some scripts to logrotate. I am having a problem. After I do
it, I am sending kill -HUP to the process
its not using the newly created messages file again. Could someone help
me out with how I can rotate asterisk's
log's without killing the process?

Asterisk doesn't use the syslog daemon tho does it? I thought it did internal logging to a file. ..o-------------------------------------------------------o.
