I upgraded Debian from version 9 to 10 and consequently postfix 3.1.12 to 3.4.5. I'm checking log with multitail in real time and with the new postfix version, I've a strange behavior. When the logs rotate, postfix continues to write in the old file renamed mail.log.1 instead of the new mail.log. I've to restart postfix to solve the problem.I created a postfix file in logrotate.d, as the following, that worked before the update: /var/log/mail.info /var/log/mail.warn /var/log/mail.err /var/log/mail.log { weekly missingok notifempty delaycompress compress create 640 root adm rotate 3650 size 10M } Any suggestion?
those files are written by syslog server, and should be rotated in syslog, not postfix logrotate config file. It's the one that causes syslog to reopen log files when they are rotated. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uh...@fantomas.sk ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
