    # This is the MariaDB configuration for the logrotate utility
#
# Note that on most Linux systems logs are written to journald, which has its
# own rotation scheme.

# Read https://mariadb.com/kb/en/error-log/ to learn more about logging and
# https://mariadb.com/kb/en/rotating-logs-on-unix-and-linux/ about rotating logs.

  # After each rotation, run this custom script to flush the logs. Note that
  # this assumes that the mariadb-admin command has database access, which it
  # has thanks to the default use of Unix socket authentication for the 'root'
  # account used everywhere since MariaDB 10.4.
