Hi ,
This question has been asked before in the list
by me.
and below is an workable solution provided by Gaetano

---------------------------------------------
Well,
the most correct way to do a logrotate is ( Redhat ):
1) Put on your postgresql.conf the following lines:
syslog = 2
syslog_facility = 'LOCAL0'
syslog_ident = 'postgres'
2) Put on the directory /etc/logrotate.d a file called
'postgres' with the following lines:
/var/log/postgresql.log {
compress
rotate 2
size=10000k
errors mendola@bigfoot.com
create 0664 postgres postgres
daily
postrotate
/usr/bin/killall -HUP syslogd
endscript
}
change the email address of course :-)
3) Put the following line on your /etc/syslog.conf
# Save postgresql logs
LOCAL0.*
/var/log/postgresql.log
Ciao
Gaetano
