Operating Systems AIX /etc/cronlog.conf not working Post 70502 by chosie on Friday 29th of April 2005 01:06:52 PM

/etc/cronlog.conf not working

I am trying to get the /etc/cronlog.conf working, but so far have not been able to.

I created the /etc/cronlog.conf file with the following entries.

logfile=/var/adm/cron/log
size=30k
rotate=2
compress

Then I kill the current cron daemon and check to make sure that it has respawned with a new pid. However, it still does not seem to work. I have tried pointing the logfile to another file to see if it is working, but it still points to the default cron log file.

Any ideas?

Thanks Smilie
