WA access logs

I am setting up a new deployment of some WA's and was surprised at the lack of any options to manage the access logs. In poking around, I see there's a cron that runs hourly to logrotate at 10MB size....

RB1980,

 

 

Thanks for sticking with the logrotate stuff and posting the result here. I understand your need to customize your logging and am sorry that you had to spend time to get it the way that you want it. In addition to spending a few minutes to speak to you about your needs, I also wanted to let you know that I am tracking this thread and will look into how we can incorporate changes into WebAccelerator to allow you to more easily modify the logrotation to the way you would like it. I am the Product Manager for Acceleration at F5 which includes the WebAccelerator product. While DevCentral is not an official way to ensure that your problems with F5 solutions get addressed, I want to let you know that I am committed to making F5 products as easy to use as well as flexible.

 

 

In short, I am sorry for the bug that you ran into with logrotate and I will work with the WebAccelerator developers to provide a long term solution to your issue. If we have not spoken by the time that you get this email, feel free to drop me a note at j.hicks at f5 dot com .

 

 

Thanks,

 

 

Joe
