Editor to share with you the case of rotation of nginx logs in linux operation and maintenance. I hope you will gain a lot after reading this article. Let's discuss it together.

There is a very useful alternate service on the linux system-logrotate. Through this service, log files can be managed alternately. When the log file is too large, it can be cut into several small log files, and it can be compressed. Nginx default log files access.log and error.log log files are not rotated on their own. Therefore, logrotate is often used to alternate management of nginx logs.

For logrotate, the operation of this program is executed daily in the scheduled tasks of the system.

# cat / etc/cron.daily/logrotate #! / bin/sh/usr/sbin/logrotate-s / var/lib/logrotate/logrotate.status.
