Thanks to everyone in advance! I have a cron that runs the following: mv $NGINX_ACCESS_LOG $ACCESS_LOG_DROPBOX/$LOG_FILENAME kill -USR1 `cat $NGINX_PID` My questions is during time between the mv and the kill, is there any log writes that are being discarded or are they being stacked in memory and dumped into the new access.log after it is recreated? Thanks! Samby samingrassia - Nginx Mailing List - English
