Running CentOS 4 w/ BlueQuartz on a whitebox, and getting this cron.daily email: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate: error: error running postrotate script Is this a common problem? Thoughts on a typical solution? thnx, Manny

Hi, I want to be certain that my apache and varnish logfiles are in strict date order when rotated. I'd like to run a sort command against them before they're compressed. I've had a look at the logrotate man page, and it looks like I can use a postrotate/endscript to do this. However, I can see any reference in the documentation for how to operate on the file. All the examples seem to take the form of restarting something, or running some other standalone script. What I want to do is run a sort command against the newly rotated file - but how do...

Thanks man You suggesting the same as https://wiki2.dovecot.org/Logging says? postrotate kill -s 0 `cat /var/run/dovecot/master.pid` || kill -s USR1 `cat /var/run/dovecot/master.pid` endscript Well, I already tried that and didn't work. Hence my guess that it's something else. On 15/06/18 13:19, Stephen Satchell wrote: > From the manpage: > SIGNALS > Dove...

The 2.04b rpm for rh60 ships with and installs a config file for logrotate (the samba.log file in the packaging/RedHat section). ===== /var/log/samba/log.nmb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP nmbd endrotate } /var/log/samba/log.smb { postrotate /usr/bin/killall -HUP smbd endrotate } ===== 1) I think that the use of "endrotate" is wrong. There is no "endrotate" in logrotate's (logrotate-3.2-1) man pages; the man e...

Hi everyone again. I run tinc with the following command: /usr/sbin/tincd -d1 --logfile=/var/log/tinc.log That creates the file "/var/log/tinc.log" correctly and reports into it. Well, because I want to have a log file by day, I have created a logrotate file (/etc/logrotate.d/tinc) that contains the following lines: ----------------------------------------- /var/log/tinc.log {
