Use shell scripts in nginx to regularly cut logs every day

Nginx does not support using cronolog to rotate logs like Apache, but you can use the following methods to cut log files:
Mv/data1/logs/access. log/data1/logs/20111030.log
Kill-USR1 Nginx master process number

Use the mv command to rename the log file to/data1/logs/20111030.log, and then send the kill-USR1 signal to the main process ID of Nginx to enable Nginx

Generate a new log file/data1/logs/access. log.

To regularly cut logs every day, you also need to use crontab. We can write a daily cut log by year or month.
Shell script for storing logs in directories:

 

The code is as follows:	Copy code
#! /Bin/bash # This script run # The Nginx logs path Logs_path = "/home/www/data/logs /" Mkdir-p $ {logs_path} $ (date-d "yesterday" + "% Y")/$ (date-d "yesterday" + "% m ")/ Mv $ {logs_path} access. log $ {logs_path} $ (date-d "yesterday" + "% Y")/$ (date-d "yesterday" + "% M ")/access _ $ (date-d" yesterday "+" % Y % m % d "). log Kill-USR1 'cat/usr/local/servers/nginx. Pid'

Grant executable permissions:

Run crontab-e to enter the editing status.

The code is as follows:	Copy code
00 04 ***/root/cut_logs.sh

In this way, your system will automatically cut nginx logs at every morning.

If you want to change the other time, you can modify 00 04 ***/root/cut_logs.sh, for example, to cut nginx access at every day.

Question Log

Crontab-e

Enter the following content:

The code is as follows:	Copy code

You only need to modify the preceding number.
