Hi, I used to have system.log writing directly to syslog and configure a rsyslog server to get all logs from my cassandra boxes. However, the java stack traces are a headache on my server and I read on rsyslog forums to change application to write to a file and let rsyslog to read from that file (using imfile module).
This is what I have done. However, the /var/log/cassandra/system.log is created as cassandra:cassandra 600. I would like to change the groupship to syslog and have permissions like 640. I can do it but whenever the file is rotated it starts again as cassandra:cassandra 600. I can't find much information on that file but changing the rotation and the size. E.g.: log4j.appender.R.maxFileSize=50MB log4j.appender.R.maxBackupIndex=50 Is there a way to control this? Thanks, Xavi
