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:

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 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

That doesn?t seem to work either. Where do I find logs for log rotation to see the reason it failed?

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?

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 ??????????? doveadm log

Thank you. And what user/group/file perms does your dovecot.log file have? - Michael On 19/03/17 13:43, Richard wrote: > >> Date: Sunday, March 19, 2017 13:32:57 +1300 >> From: Michael Heuberger <michael.heuberger at binarykitchen.com> >> >> Hello guys >> >> Having headaches here how to make logrotation for dovecot log files >> work.

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 {

Well, I tried the same but it didn't work. Setting my dovecot.log to 600 with root:root is breaking my mail system. I am then unable to receive and open emails. Had to apply an ugly hack /var/log/dovecot*.log { su syslog syslog create 666 syslog syslog rotate 10 ... } Like that anyone who wants to access/write to it, can do it and all works. That's my

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, 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

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. more info hereunder: The strange thing is that sometimes it works for one file... /var/log/cisco_acl.log /var/log/cisco_debug.log { rotate 1 notifempty #daily size 1k create 0640 root noc

Can you try this and adjust the path's in it. #/etc/logrotate.d/samba /var/log/samba/log.smbd { weekly missingok rotate 7 postrotate [ ! -x /usr/bin/smbcontrol ] || [ ! -f /run/samba/smbd.pid ] || /usr/bin/smbcontrol smbd reload-config endscript compress delaycompress notifempty } /var/log/samba/log.nmbd {

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 {
