Package: logrotate
Version: 3.7.1-5
Severity: normal
This system is running under VMware Server.
The problem occured after we upgraded squid to the lenny-backports version
(3.1.3-2). Log files currently rotate, but it appears that squid3 -k rotate
is never run. I check on the server about 8 AM (Logrotate runs at 6:25 AM I
think), and squid is writing its logs to /var/log/squid3/access.log.1 . If I
run /etc/init.d/squid3 reload it creates the access.log file and begins
writing to it.
The contents of the /etc/logrotate.d/squid3 file are:
#
# Logrotate fragment for squid3.
#
/var/log/squid3/*.log {
daily
compress
delaycompress
rotate 2
missingok
nocreate
sharedscripts
postrotate
test ! -e /var/run/squid3.pid || /usr/sbin/squid3 -k rotate
endscript
}
I've verified that /var/run/squid3.pid exists. If I move the
/var/log/squid3/access.log to /var/log/squid3/access.log.test and then run
/usr/bin/squid3 -k rotate, squid stops writing to the old log file and then
will create a new /var/log/squid3/access.log and begin writing to it.
