I end up with an access.log that has the wrong number and logrotate
can't compress it.
I think what is happening is logrotate renames access.log to
access.log.0, and then squid -k rotate renames it to access.log.1, and
then logrotate tries to compress logrotate.0, which it now can't find.
Or something like that. My uncompressed store.log is actually at .2
store.log i rarely useful. You may want to remove it from the config.
I've worked around it by setting logfile_rotate to 0, but I'm
wondering if this is a recent change with unexpected side effects when
working with logrotate.
That would be the problem. logfile_rotate 0 is a requirement when
doing log rotation outside of Squid. Such as with logrotate.
It has been that way since Squid-2.6. The mystery is why it worked for
you before. Or why the squid.conf changed during the upgrade.
