1) my Z2.log is growing continuously, and that would not be strictly a problem; but now it's 1.3Gb.. and i can expect him to grow more and more... My ambition is not to full entire disk space for the logs, but as i know, i can't avoid to keep them! The content of Z2.log is plain text, and i can suppose that using some sort of compression method probably might lead to an high rate compression of Z2.log. It would be great if Medusa could handle compressed Z2.log.
When you sent a Zope process a "SIGUSR2" signal, it closes and reopens all its log files. You can use this for log rotation. E.g. mv Z2.log Z2.log.save kill -SIGUSR2 $(cat var/Z2.pid) # this will close the old log file and open a new one Now, you can compress "Z2.log.save" (or delete it). Dieter
