Since installing Jessie from scratch on this laptop, I'm getting a nightly error message from logrotate:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate: error: error running shared postrotate script for '/var/log/mysql.log /var/log/mysql/mysql.log /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log /var/log/mysql/error.log ' run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1 /etc/logrotate.d/mysql-server is unchanged from the packaged version: # - I put everything in one block and added sharedscripts, so that mysql gets # flush-logs'd only once. # Else the binary logs would automatically increase by n times every day. # - The error log is obsolete, messages go to syslog now. /var/log/mysql.log /var/log/mysql/mysql.log /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log /var/log/mysql/error.log { daily rotate 7 missingok create 640 mysql adm compress sharedscripts postrotate test -x /usr/bin/mysqladmin || exit 0 # If this fails, check debian.conf!
