[log4perl-devel] sample rolling log file with explicit log file mode setting?

[Jeff M. <je...@ya...>]

Hi folks.

I'm using log4perl in the obvious way.
We have reqs to set the mode of the log file to 0666.

using

log4perl.appender.PUSHD=Log::Dispatch::FileRotate
log4perl.appender.PUSHD.filename=/tmp/pushd.log
log4perl.appender.PUSHD.mode=append
log4perl.appender.PUSHD.permissions = 
S_IRUSR|S_IWUSR|S_IRGRP|S_IWGRP|S_IROTH|S_IWOTH
# rotate among 5 log files of 10Mbytes each
log4perl.appender.PUSHD.size=100kb
log4perl.appender.PUSHD.max=5

results in 5 files of mode 0;

permissions=0666 gets passed as a string through the layers, not as an 
octal number, and results in:

--w--wx-wT  1 nobody nobody 1063 Nov  2 12:41 pushd.log*

Anyone have a recipe here that works?
