Hi,
take a look at /etc/cron.daily/apache.
There you will find a include for a file /etc/apache/cron.conf
and a few shell commands dealing with the settings within it.
And somehow you can change the behavior to the one you wanted.
So you have to look at two places for the task you want.
Hope that helps...

Betreff: Logrotate weekly prerotate everyday?
Hello Folks:
I call a local script from...
/etc/logrotate.d/apache
...in Debian 3.0 to run Analog reports. It is supposed to run once a
week, but it runs every day:
/var/log/apache/*.log {
weekly
missingok
rotate 52
compress
delaycompress
notifempty
create 640 root adm
sharedscripts
postrotate
/etc/init.d/apache reload > /dev/null
endscript
# -- added by ward 28Jul02
prerotate
/etc/run_weekly_analog_reports.sh
endscript
# -- end ward
}
My tiny mind thinks a "prerotate" block should only be executed
"weekly" once it has been decided to perform a rotation. Not every
time cron/logrotate peeks into this "apache" file. What as I missing?
(I have fixed the problem by checking the day of the week in my local
reporting script, but I'd still like to understand my disconnect with
Perfect Understanding of the One True Way(tm).)
Thanks,
-- Ward
