i guess it is strongly related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsyslog/+bug/484336 -- messages, syslog and kern.log don't get rotated. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483526 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

logrotate rotates the /var/log/syslog file, and does not create a new one. rsyslog gets a kill -HUP, but is then unable to create a new /var/log/syslog -- messages, syslog and kern.log don't get rotated. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483526 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 483526] Re: messages, syslog and kern.log don't get rotated.
as a workaround, try: logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog this rotated my logfiles, but i had to manually restart rsyslog in order to have it open a new /var/log/syslog -- messages, syslog and kern.log don't get rotated. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/483526 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
