Hi all, I have a problem with logrotate and I don't know why. In /var/log/messages appears these errors: Apr 8 15:01:01 plzfnsm02 logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1] Apr 8 16:01:01 plzfnsm02 logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1] Apr 8 17:01:01 plzfnsm02 logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1] Apr 8 18:01:01 plzfnsm02 logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1] Apr 8 19:01:01 plzfnsm02 logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1] Apr 8 20:01:02 plzfnsm02 logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1] Apr 8 21:01:01 plzfnsm02 logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1] Apr 8 22:01:01 plzfnsm02 logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1] Apr 8 23:01:01 plzfnsm02 logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1] It seems the problem if with this logrotate.conf (executed every hour): create dateext /srv/www2/logs/viewer.log { size 512k create 0640 www www missingok rotate 7 compress delaycompress copytruncate notifempty } Doing a debug: [root@www02 ~]# logrotate /data/config/etc/logrotate.conf -dv reading config file /data/config/etc/logrotate.conf reading config info for /nsm/moloch/logs/viewer.log Handling 1 logs rotating pattern: /srv/www2/logs/viewer.log 524288 bytes (7 rotations) empty log files are not rotated, old logs are removed considering log /srv/www2/logs/viewer.log log needs rotating rotating log /srv/www2/logs/viewer.log, log->rotateCount is 7 dateext suffix '-20140409' glob pattern '-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]' glob finding logs to compress failed destination /srv/www2/logs/viewer.log-20140409 already exists, skipping rotation According to this kb from redhat's website: https://access.redhat.com/site/solutions/39006 problem could be selinux. But SElinux is disabled: [root@www02 ~]# sestatus SELinux status: disabled [root@www02 ~]# Any idea?? Could be a bug?? Host is a CentOS 6.5 x86_64 fully patched. Thanks. _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
