problem with split log

[dika]

Hi there,

Unfortunately nginx doesn't support piping log method inside it's config 
script, so you have to set it separately.
try this:

~ point your access/error log to a file, such as /logs/access.log/ and 
/logs/error.log/
~ if /logs/access.log/ and /logs/error.log/ has been exist, delete them, 
and recreate as fifo's
~ /mkfifo logs/access.log logs/error.log/
~ make a .sh files to put a cronolog script and piping, like:

#!/bin/bash

|(cat /usr/local/nginx/logs/access.log |/usr/local/sbin/cronolog -l /var/log/nginx/access.log \
/var/log/nginx/%Y/%m/%d/%H/access.log) &
(cat /usr/local/nginx/logs/error.log |/usr/local/sbin/cronolog -l /var/log/nginx/error.log \
/var/log/nginx/%Y/%m/%d/%H/error.log) &|

~ start/execute thus file whenever you start your nginx
