[-- Attachment #1 --] Dear Colleagues, On one of my Web servers, newsyslog went mad and sliced up the logs into hundreds of thousands of small files like ./access_log.2.gz.13.gz.1.gz ./access_log.2.gz.5.gz.3.gz.7.gz ./access_log.2.gz.8.gz.3.gz ./access_log.2.gz.9.gz.2.gz ./access_log.2.gz.8.gz.1.gz.1.gz ./access_log.3.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.4.gz ./access_log.3.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz ./access_log.3.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.2.gz ./access_log.2.gz.5.gz.1.gz.2.gz.1.gz.0.gz ./access_log.2.gz.13.gz.0.gz ./access_log.3.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz ./access_log.2.gz.6.gz.1.gz.5.gz.0.gz ./access_log.3.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.2.gz.2.gz Most of those files are one- or two-liners only with Nov 1 00:00:00 www2 newsyslog[8804]: logfile turned over Dec 1 00:00:00 www2 newsyslog[72418]: logfile turned over in them.
