Hello group,
I like nginx. I have a dumb question: Is there a way that I can setup to
rotate the nginx logfiles? My access.log is growing over 700MB.
Use logrotate(8) or use a shell script. Remember that you need to run
$ kill -USR1 /path/to/nginx
in order to re-open the log file.

You can do it with logrotate like in this example /etc/logrotate.d/nginx
/var/logs/nginx/*.log {
missingok
notifempty
sharedscripts
postrotate
test ! -f /var/run/nginx.pid || kill -USR1 cat /var/run/nginx.pid
endscript
}
And you might want to have a look at
