[CentOS] Logrotate Problem

2008-07-30 Thread Balaji 

Dear All,

  Currently  i am using CentOS 4.4 Linux
  I have configured crontab to run cron.daily at 4:02 am
  2 4 * * *   rootrun-parts /etc/cron.daily

  On 4:02 am my pc is shutdown and i am boot-up my pc on 13:11:10
  Please verify the system log messages from "/var/log/messages" file
  Jul 30 13:11:10 localhost syslogd 1.4.1: restart (remote reception).
  Jul 30 13:11:10 localhost snmpd[2663]: Received TERM or STOP 
signal...  shutting down...

  Jul 30 13:11:11 localhost snmpd: snmpd shutdown succeeded
  Jul 30 13:11:11 localhost snmpd: snmpd startup succeeded
  Jul 30 13:11:12 localhost syslogd 1.4.1: restart (remote reception).
  Jul 30 13:11:12 localhost logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1]

   But Logrotate will be done after PC is boot-up

  Please verify the logrotate messages from "/var/spool/mail/root" file

[CentOS] Logrotate problem after start of DST

2008-04-20 Thread Bernd Bartmann 
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.

Why, that would be wonderful. Or better not, otherwise I won't be able

Jim,

If you stopped poking fun of things in the mailing
list then you know it is time to hang it up and quit! :-)

All of them. Since they're based on debian anyway. See this thread for

Is this for the same BSD system you asked questions on
before concerning log rotation problems?

I have said my logs are not rotating automatically through cron, manually
running the script
works fine, this problem has been seen two weeks back.
