Hi,
Thanks Marco for your reply about logrotate.
I think you are right that logrotate would offer a solution to the failure
of a piped logging process, because (I think) it allows Apache to log to a
file, and then simply re-starts Apache to change the file.
I was using rotatelogs as an example of a piped logging process,
because everyone knows what it does. However, my piped logging process is
actually logging to MySQL, using a program similar to the project at
http://logtomysql.sourceforge.net/
It is recording in real time the data transfered from the server for each
user, to ensure data transfer limits are not exceeded.
I think the Monit solution will work, but in the long term I will look for
alternative solutions, possibly using mod_log_mysql (when available for
Apache2) or some other solution.
Thanks for your ideas,
David.
