Supervisord log file rotation settings
I have started some php processes with supervisord, and i am keeping all the stdout logs on one file and the error output on an other one. I have set the max size at 1mb and i am running 3 copies of each process. When i check the logs there appears to be more than one of the log files, so instead of "log1.log" there is "log1.log log1.log.1 log1.log.2 log1.log.3". The process seems to work correctly so i am just asking for clarification, does this happen because the log is locked for writing by an other process so the process that tries to write has to use an other file?

Answer
This effect is called log rotation. When log file is bigger than value in stdout_logfile_maxbytes it's content is moved to logfile.log.1 for backup. If you want to change this behaviour you can:
- Change value of
stdout_logfile_maxbytesto 0 - all logs will be kept in one log file. - Change value of
stdout_logfile_backupsto 0 - when log file is too big old logs will be deleted instead of moved to separate file.
The same applies accordingly to stderr_logfile_maxbytes and stderr_logfile_backups.
