file_cycle writing to ".1" file
Hello, I'm trying to use file_cycle to clean up old NXLog files.  When I start NXLog I see my log file "Demo.log" created and being written to.  When my schedule executes I see the log file getting renamed to "Demo.log.1" but no new Demo.log file is created and NXLog still continues to write to the "Demo.log.1" file. I'm not sure if I have something set incorrectly or if there is a bug.  Here's the necessary bits from nxlog.conf: define NXLOG_DEMO c:\NXlog\Demo.log <Extension fileop> Module xm_fileop <Schedule> #Cycle the NXLog files daily and only keep 14 days When @daily Exec file_cycle('%NXLOG_DEMO%', 14); </Schedule> </Extension> <Output Demo_out> Module om_file file '%NXLOG_DEMO%' CreateDir TRUE </Output> I'm not sure if I have something set incorrectly or if there's a better way to do what I'm trying to accomplish. Thanks! Jeff
