No I haven't been so I will give that a go. Thanks for the suggestion.
My mythbackend file for logrotate now looks like this:
/var/log/mythtv/mythbackend.log {
notifempty
missingok
copytruncate
compress
compresscmd /usr/bin/bzip2
uncompresscmd /usr/bin/bunzip2
compressext .bz2
weekly
}
Does this look right?
Regards,
Phill
