Hey guys, I'm trying to rotate a logstash log that can grow pretty large. 3.4GB last I saw! And that's because the logrotate script I came up with didn't work. The error I get on a syntax check is this: #logrotate -f logstash size: '100M': No such file size: '100M': No such file size: '100M': No such file size: '100M': No such file size:

Hi! I have one problem with my logrotate. Samba version: Samba 4 7.7 (compilated) S.O.: Ubuntu 14.04 /16.04 Samba logs file: /opt/samba/var/ Logrotate File: cat /etc/logrotate.d/samba -- /opt/samba/var/log.samba {   rotate 10         daily         compress         dateext         size 100M         nomail         missingok         notifempty         create 644 root root

Looking at some of the stuff in /etc/logrotate.d, I see entries like this in some of the configuration files: postrotate /sbin/service privoxy reload 2> /dev/null || true >From the commandline, that doesn't work: # /sbin/service privoxy reload 2> /dev/null || true Usage: /etc/init.d/privoxy {start|stop|restart} Changing reload to restart does work: ]# /sbin/service privoxy

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

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 {

Hello! I having a problem with the permissions of some of my logfiles.

I've just updated a few CentOS 5.3 servers to 5.4. One of them were a Apache Webserver. Doing a diff/check on the new ".rpmnew" config files that are made, I saw that the logrotate command for apache was changed. In 5.3 it did a reload, but in 5.4 it does a hard kill: CentOS 5.3: /var/log/httpd/*log { missingok notifempty sharedscripts postrotate

I got the fail2ban from epel. There were a number of issues relating to using a log file... logwatch was looking for both fail2ban and fail2ban.log logrotate file fail2ban added looked for fail2ban.log and then reset itself to syslog fail2ban itself went to syslog, over riding its fail2ban.log. took a while, but I use /var/log/fail2ban now, that finally worked through logrotates and logwatch.

I created some scripts to logrotate. I am having a problem. After I do it, I am sending kill -HUP to the process its not using the newly created messages file again.

I'm noticing that logrotate's default configuration for rotating /var/ log/secure and /var/log/messages partially fails if root's shell is set to /bin/tcsh (via chsh). (Running on CentOS 4.4; logrotate-3.7.1-5.RHEL4). What seems to be happening is that the logrotate.d/syslog postrotate command runs: /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null

Icecast 2.1.0 Debian 3.0 I'm trying to use logrotate to rotate my Icecast logs and I'm running into some problems because it seems that Icecast won't write to the new log after rotation takes place. I'd really rather not do a full restart of Icecast everytime I rotate the log, since I don't want to disconnect a large number of listeners. Is there a signal that can be sent to

Has anyone had any success in getting Samba to correctly restart logging to the log files with the default logrotate setup (or even a modified one) from RedHat? The default setup is to move the files to another location, create a new file for Samba to fill, then send the daemons a HUP signal. I've tried some of the options that can be used in the logrotate.d/samba file (nocreate and

I have recently noticed that my dovecot-deliver.log is huge and wanted to start rotating it. So a couple of questions: 1. Can the dovecot-deliver.log be combined with the maillog, that gets rotated weekly? If it can be done, is it advisable? Since the inception of this particular server, the log file has been located in the /home/vmail directory. Is there a reason it shouldn?t be located in
