log files rotator for nginx on windows
I wrote this code for rotating nginx log file on windows server. I installed nginx as windows service to serve loads of static content hence it writes lots of entries in log files. So i wrote this code to stop nginx for few seconds, move log files to new location and then restart it.
It requires .NET 3.5, Log4net and file called service.config (which has config details for log rotator)
Installation steps :
1> Copy service.config in same directory as windowslogrotator.exe files
2> Configure WindowsLogRotator.exe.config (app.config) with log4net config
3> Install windowslogrotator.exe as windows service using installutil
4> Enjoy
