You can define log rotation parameters for Plesk services in general and for each domain separately. To make working with log files more convenient, you can include the file creation date into the names of rotated log files. If you do this, the names of rotated log files will have the following format &lt;log_name>.processed-YYYYMMDD.gz, where &lt;log_name> is the name of the log file before rotation, like error_log or httpsd_access_log, and YYYYMMDD is the date of the log rotation. For example, error_log.processed-20130101.gz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<aside id=\"text-16\" class=\"widget widget_text amr_widget\">\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><div class=\"reseller_web_hosting_support_advts\">\r\n\r\n<div class=\"reseller_web_hosting_support_advts_left\">\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.siliconhouse.net\/linux-reseller-web-hosting-india\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.siliconhouse.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/336X280-saffron-unlimited-499-kickstart.gif\" width=\"336\" height=\"280\" alt=\"Reseller Hosting Special Offer\"><\/a>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"reseller_web_hosting_support_advts_right\">\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.siliconhouse.net\/linux-cloud-server-hosting-india\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.siliconhouse.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/336X280-purple-enterprise-cloud-stak-19.jpg\" width=\"336\" height=\"280\" alt=\"Enterprise Cloud Stack\"><\/a>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/aside>\n\n\n<aside id=\"text-20\" class=\"extendedwopts-md-center widget widget_text amr_widget\">\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\"><div class=\"reseller_web_hosting_support_advts\">\r\n<div class=\"reseller_web_hosting_support_advts_left\">\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/www.siliconhouse.net\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/reseller-hosting-249-offer.gif\" width=\"320\" height=\"100\" alt=\"Reseller Hosting Special Offer\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"reseller_web_hosting_support_advts_right\">\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/www.siliconhouse.net\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/reseller-hosting-249-offer.gif\" width=\"320\" height=\"100\" alt=\"Reseller Hosting Special Offer\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<\/aside>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n\nKindly use the below procedure to Setup Log rotation settings in Plesk<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[1]  Log in to Plesk panel.<br>[2]\u00a0 Click on the option \u2018Websites and Domains\u2019.<br>[3]\u00a0 Click the icon \u2018Logs\u2019 under the domain for which you want to change log rotation settings.<br>[4]  Click the icon on the top right and click \u2018Manage Log Files\u2019.<br>[5]\u00a0 Click the button \u2018Log Rotation\u2019.<br>[6]\u00a0 The Plesk pop-up window will give you a few different options for managing log rotation.
