I can see multiple error_log files on my Apache Server. Example: error_log, error_log.1, error_log.2, error_log.3, error_log.4 ..
I think initially single file is created with name error_log. Then after some limit on single file all contents of error_log file will be moved to error_log.1 and new errors will be inserted in error_log.
I want to understand what is limit on file size OR when server decide to create new error file for error_log. I guess this must configurable ??
Also, I noticed that file size of all files mentioned in example are different.
Please help me to understand How this process works ?
