[jetty-users] Log rotation for Jetty request logs

[Darsh <darsh.patil@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm trying  to setup log rotation and deletion for jetty request log.

I have following  jetty-requestlog.xml under jetty_base/etc

Haven't enabled the jetty request log module in the start.ini file.

I'm passing jetty-requestlog.xml as an argument start.jar. 

Logs are getting rotated every night but deletion is not happening. Can anyone please help me debug?

<Set name="RequestLog">

    <New id="RequestLog" class="org.eclipse.jetty.server.AsyncNCSARequestLog">

    <Set name="filename">/var/log/jolokia_proxy/yyyy_mm_dd.request.log</Set>

      <Set name="append">true</Set>

      <Set name="extended">false</Set>

      <Set name="LogTimeZone">GMT</Set>

      <Set name="retainDays">1</Set>

    </New>

  </Set>

</Configure>

I'm using jetty 9.3.10.v20160621

Is there anyway to setup log rotation for request log based on size and backup index? Similar to jetty logs?

Thanks
