Re: [webmin-l] Awstats module failing on SuSE 10

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

One option would be to have logrotate run awstats just before
rotating the log file. However, a better solution would be for
Webmin / Virtualmin to handle this automatically, by setting the
logFile option in awstats.XXX.conf to some program that outputs all
compressed / rotates logs.

The down side here is that this would make log processing much
slower, as all rotated files would need to be un-compressed each
time awstats is run..
