Hello,

You could take a look at : /etc/logrotate.conf and /etc/logrotate.d/postgresql-common

My advice will be to copy (as root) postgresql-common file like :

cp /etc/logrotate.d/postgresql-common /etc/logrotate.d/openerp

then edit the "/etc/logrotate.d/openerp" file (vi or other editor) and change the file name on the first line (replace "/var/log/postgresql/*.log" by "/var/log/openerp-server.log")

After this, depending the size of the openerp-server.log file, you could change from weekly to daily for the logrotate frequency within /etc/logrotate.d/openerp file.

Hope this will help you.

Have a nide day. @++ Nicolas
