Im running clamav as a daemon on a fedora and basically keep it running 24/7 except for an occasional update every now and then. I want the main clamd log to rotate and have the LogFileMaxSize set to some small amount for testing purposes and LogRotate set to yes. I had no prior experience with any log rotation and here I learned that just these settings alone won't suffice to get the logs to rotate. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I have to set up a script to /etc/logrotate.d/ as well. In /etc/logrotate.d/ the only clamav related file is called "clamav-update", though. Nothing clamd related. Im pretty lost with the whole log rotation thing as I can't understand the connection between the scan.conf settings and the inbuilt logrotate on my fedora.
If possible I want to be able to keep running clamd without interruption while rotating logs when they get too big. How can I achieve this? What configurations do I have to do? What scripts do I have to set up? How can I affect the names of the stored logs? Sorry for such a messy question, I'm really lost with this log rotation thing and I think I'd need someone to walk me through the whole process. Thanks!
