Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nginx
here's the output for the actual logrotate conf file on nginx:
$ cat /etc/logrotate.d/nginx
/var/log/nginx/*.log {
daily
missingok
rotate 52
compress
delaycompress
notifempty
create 640 root adm
sharedscripts
postrotate
[ ! -f /var/run/nginx.pid ] || kill -USR1 `cat
/var/run/nginx.pid`
endscript
}
It creates the new log with root access. When it rotates for the first
time nginx is not able to output to the log anymore since it runs by
default as www-data. A quickfix would be to change only the logrotate
fix to this:
(...)
create 640 www-data www-data
(...)
I'm on fully updated karmic
