[RADIATOR] customizing the log entries in radiator

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Eric -

It is usually good practice to generate a new log file for every day.

You can do this by using special characters like this:


LogFile %L/logfile-%Y-%m-%d


which will write a new log file in the log directory each day with a name like this:


logfile-2013-04-25


see section 5.2 in the Radiator 4.11 reference manual ("doc/ref.html").

regards

Hugh

The only issue I'm having is that I need the ability to somehow delimit the start and end of each log entry so that the monitoring program knows how to deal with new logs being shipped.    Anyone have any ideas here?  Thanks for the help in advance!
