[CentOS] Logrotate problem after start of DST
Hi, since the start of the daylight savings time my server has a problem with the log files. Sunday night the log files get rotated correctly, i.e. /var/log/messages gets /var/log.messages.1, /var/log/messages.1 get /var/log/messages.2, ... The problem now is that after log rotation new messages do no go to /var/log/messages, but to the rotated file. As DST started 3 weeks, the latest log entries now go to /var/log/messages.3. This happens to all other log files too. Even after rebooting the server new log entries go to /var/log/messages.3 instead of /var/log/messages. Any ideas why this happens and how to fix this problem? Thanks in advance, Bernd. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Is this for the same BSD system you asked questions on before concerning log rotation problems? Which BSD system borrowed run-parts from Debian? ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
