I have the following in my newsyslog.conf

/var/log/httpd-*.log        644  9     8    @T01    BG /var/run/httpd.pid 30

and am seeing crashes with apache-2.0.63_2 which I think are associated. I think this tells newsyslog to treat the file as binary and send signal 30 SIGUSR1.

The relevant error log entries appear to be these lines

I have used this rotation scheme with FreeBSD 6.0/6.1/6.2 for some years and it has never failed till the last few days when I'm now running 7.0-RELEASE. Can anyone advise what could be done to ameliorate this.

I see mention of rotatelogs and using apache's pipe log feature, is that a better solution to this problem?
