logrotate script error
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

Logrotate in CentOS 5.4 more brutal (to httpd at least) than in 5.3?
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:

logrotate. Bug or am I blind?
Hello!
I having a problem with the permissions of some of my logfiles.
It seems that when the files are rotated, the user/group is root root and the permissions are rw for root only.

The strange thing is that sometimes it works for one file...

2.0.4b: logrotate problems with rh60
The 2.04b rpm for rh60 ships with and installs a config file for logrotate

date in logrotate
Quick logrotate question for the group. To comply with a PHB mandate,
I need to keep our apache logs for a minimum of 2 years, and will be
periodically required to hand over chunks of the logs from specific
dates/times. While extending the timeframe of logrotate is easy, I've
found that there's no elegant solution in the RH/CentOS logrotate for
appending dates to the filename. I'm

logrotate and logger reload
I have one system that went totally crazy on me.
It went into an infinite loop rotating * message and log files.
From the asterisk console I kept seeing the message about re-loading
logger.conf over and over and it just kept creating more and more files.
I baby set many different * boxes all running the same script without
this problem.
Here is my cron script:
/var/log/asterisk/cdr-csv/*csv {

fail2ban logrotate failure
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.

logrotate, syslog, and chsh
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

Problem with tinc.log and logrotate.
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:

After logrotation Dovecot still writes to old log file
Hi there
This is weird. On my latest Ubuntu server Dovecot seems to write to
/var/log/dovecot.log.1 instead of a recently created /var/log/dovecot.log
Here my logrotate config for Dovecot:
/var/log/dovecot.log {
??????? su root syslog
??????? rotate 7
??????? missingok
??????? copytruncate
??????? create 666 root syslog
??????? sharedscripts
??????? postrotate

Logrotate
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. Could someone help
me out with how I can rotate asterisk's
log's without killing the process?

Samba 4.7.4 + bind9 DLZ /backend/ dropping delegated domain
Hai,
Check the content of :
/etc/logrotate.d/named
If you see
postrotate
/etc/init.d/smbd reload > /dev/null
endscript
Change that to
postrotate
if [ -d /run/systemd/system ]; then; systemctl -q is-active named && systemctl reload named; else; /etc/init.d/named reload ; fi';
endscript
Its something like that, so who pointing.. That does not matter, because this is OS

Log rotation and combining...
So, the question is, why can I rotate the log manually, but cron returns a permission error? Do I need to tell cron to run it as sudo or something like that?
