Re: [squid-users] continued log rotation problems ...

Perhaps I missed something, but why don't you have squid take care of it's
own logrotation?

with the logfile_rotate command. and then have cron issue a
0 * * * * /usr/sbin/squid -k rotate > /dev/null 2>&1 > /dev/null

every hour.

That works pretty well. You can even run it more frequently should you
wish.
