[users@httpd] Can't delete apache2's logfile under windows 2003
Hi all,
Three days, I helped my friend to setup a server with apache2(IIS Sucks!) on
Windows Server 2003. Everything runs fine. In httpd.conf I reset the
configure of CustomLog to:
CustomLog "|c:/apache/apache2/bin/cronolog.exe e:/logs/access%Y%m%d.log"
combined
Which can help him to manager his log by day. It works! But when he tried to
compress the old logfile. He got error message which said that "that file is
using by another program." But he can delete the file. Can someone here help
on this problem? Thank you in advanced!

Under FreeBSD I can compress the file freely.

Tell him to do a graceful restart on Apache before attempting to compress the
file. It's only a workaround, but it'll probably get what you want.
