Hi, I am trying to make a log rotator and found a great perl script to do it but, would really like it in PHP (one less langauge to maintain).
I know the system has "things" in place to do this but, I don't have access to the system /etc/log/ folder or the system log rotation scripts. I figured a simple php command line script would be a good alternative to maintain my own logs. Here's the perl script: #!/usr/bin/perl $LOGPATH='/Users/cv_admin/mylogs'; @LOGNAMES=('housekeeper_log_deleter.log','mysqlbackups_deleter.log','webbac kups_deleter.log'); $MAXCYCLE = 4; chdir $LOGPATH; # Change to the log directory foreach $filename (@LOGNAMES) { for (my $s=$MAXCYCLE; $s >= 0; $s-- ) { $oldname = $s ? "$filename.$s" : $filename; $newname = join(".",$filename,$s+1); rename $oldname,$newname if -e $oldname; } } Don Myers -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
