ServerLogSaver
ServerLogSaver
Description
Simply put, this will backup the server.log file to a directory, and then clear the existing server.log file. This is to reduce RAM usage of the server host and effectively reduce lag for server players.
Most of the functions in this are configurable, such as backup location, time delay between backups, choice of Size and Time rotations and more!

This used to be the case, yes. I believe bukkit has modified how they handle the server.log now.
Now, this is just a convenience plugin which some people still like and use.

Alright, alright, you convinced me to update it to 1.2.5. Latest version is TESTED and WORKING with 1.2.5 R4.0.
However, one feature in it (ClearAtMaxLogs) I still recommend people to be cautious about trying because I seem to have some problems with it. That's not saying it doesn't work, just, test it first :)

Sure, HEREis the latest source. I wouldn't be surprised if this was a problem because I haven't been updating it at all since 1.1 R4 and haven't even tried it against the latest RB. This was the first program I ever made for java so don't be surprised if you see some messy code :)

Posted Jun 20, 2012Could you upload the source of the latest builds please? I have a crash I am thinking might be related to this plugin, but I don't wanna point fingers before checking the source out.

Posted May 13, 2012Hello, is it possible to change where this plugin backs up to? I would like to have it backup to my wamps server so the players can view it for cheating.

Thats the OLD config from before 2.0.0. When updating to 2.0.0 or higher please let a new config file generate.
I had a notice at the top saying to do this but this was a while ago and i removed it when i released 2.1.0. When you do this and allow a new config to generate it should all work fine. The reason people have to do this is because, in updating to the latest config, i changed the layout of the config (and added a few things) so this means you need to delete the old and allow for a new.
