When logrotate fired this month, almost all of my logs remain at zero length and the .1 log continues to grow. For example:
ls -l /var/log ... -rw-r----- 1 root adm 0 Oct 5 06:25 messages -rw-r----- 1 root adm 4938 Oct 6 06:56 messages.1 ... -rw-r----- 1 root adm 0 Oct 1 06:25 syslog -rw-r----- 1 root adm 15767734 Oct 6 13:17 syslog.1 I'm running debian wheezy 7.6 on two separate systems. I'm guessing that logrotate didn't complete to restart the daemons. When I run logrotate -dv, I see no errors. I update both with cron-apt and I would not be surprised if one of the updates caused this but I'm not sure. Has anyone else seen this? Any idea how to fix it so this works next month?
