mod_log_rotate updated
I’ve just added the most requested feature to mod_log_rotate - the ability to specify a strftime() format string as the log file name. So now you can do something like
CustomLog logs/access_log.%Y%m%d-%H%M%S common
and have log files named with a human readable date and time. The source for both Apache 1.3 and Apache 2 (and 2.2) versions here. Steffan at apachelounge.com has made a Win32 binary available here: apachelounge.com/download.

Hello, is it a bug or plateform-dependant implementation ? on XP with Apache 2.2.3, impossible to have the time in log file name, %H %M %S are returning null values. I tried all args of strftime format , and all of them related to time are null values. Any idea ? greetings.

I’m not sure to be honest - and I don’t have XP to test against. I’ll try to track down a Windows box and investigate further.

I can confirm this problem exists on Windows 2000 Server sp4 patches current as of today.

I now have an XP box :)
I’ll do some testing and see if I can find out what’s going on. Thanks for letting me know.
