Log Rotation

[chriscannon]

Is there a way to do log rotation with Seyren? I tried creating my own logrotate script, but when it runs and creates a new seyren.log file Seyren stops writing to it. Here's my current logrotate script:

/var/log/seyren/*.log {
    daily
    size 100k
    missingok
    rotate 4
    compress
    notifempty
    create 644 root root
}

Anyone?

Sorry, Seyren should be rotating its own logs. See logback.xml for details. It should (and my installation does) rotate log files daily, keeping a maximum of 28 days.

Gotcha. Is there anyway to modify the configuration settings in that file from a command line argument to Java? Ideally I would like to have the logs rotated daily or set <level> to error.

There wasn't, but as of that commit I just put in there you can set the SEYREN_LOG_FILE_LEVEL environment variable to error and you'll just be logging errors.

Thanks!
