On my Rocky Linux 9, I have found this file /etc/logrotate.d/nginx
/var/log/nginx/*log {
    daily
    rotate 10
    missingok
    notifempty
    compress
    delaycompress
    sharedscripts
    postrotate
        /bin/kill -USR1 `cat /run/nginx.pid 2>/dev/null` 2>/dev/null || true
    endscript
}

Whereas I have on my Fedora 36 (with a working fine log rotation process):
/var/log/nginx/*.log {
    create 0640 nginx root
    daily
    rotate 10
    missingok
    notifempty
    compress
    delaycompress
    sharedscripts
    postrotate
        /bin/kill -USR1 `cat /run/nginx.pid 2>/dev/null` 2>/dev/null || true
    endscript
}

Can I had on (create 0640 nginx root) on the server whitout risking to break everything on next logs rotates?

Thank you,
Vincent.

This sounds like your log rotation process is not signalling nginx to write a new log.  I don't know Rocky Linux, so I can't be specific in further suggestions.

    Hello,

    The logs are working fine but once a day, nginx stop loging access
    and then the file log file is empty.

    So every day I have to restart my nginx server in order to get the
    logs.

    It's on a Rocky Linux 9 with Nginx 1.20.1

    Never seen that before, what should I check?

    Thanks,
    Vincent.
