Logrotate no rotará el registro mientras dice que lo hace

Question

Tengo una configuración de logrotate que funcionaba normalmente, hasta que de repente dejó de hacerlo. Supongo que dejó de rotar mi registro después de que eliminé y volví a crear la logcarpeta mientras actualizaba mi aplicación. A continuación se muestran las partes relevantes de la configuración y el registro de logrotate.

/etc/logrotate.conf

# see "man logrotate" for details
# rotate log files weekly
weekly

# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs
rotate 4

# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
create

# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
#compress

# packages drop log rotation information into this directory
include /etc/logrotate.d

# no packages own wtmp, or btmp -- we'll rotate them here
/var/log/wtmp {
    missingok
    monthly
    create 0664 root utmp
    rotate 1
}

/var/log/btmp {
    missingok
    monthly
    create 0660 root utmp
    rotate 1
}

# system-specific logs may be configured here
/var/lib/redmine/log/production.log{
    daily
    rotate 30
    compress
    delaycompress
    missingok
    notifempty
}

Después de ejecutar logrotate manualmente:

rotating pattern: /var/lib/redmine/log/production.log after 1 days (30 rotations)
empty log files are not rotated, old logs are removed
considering log /var/lib/redmine/log/production.log
  log needs rotating
rotating log /var/lib/redmine/log/production.log, log->rotateCount is 30
dateext suffix '-20151209'
glob pattern '-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]'
compressing log with: /bin/gzip

Después de enumerar el directorio de registro:

ll /var/lib/redmine/log/
total 178484
drwxrwxr-x  2 redmine redmine      4096 Dec  9 12:05 ./
drwxr-xr-x 20 redmine redmine      4096 Dec  6 23:56 ../
-rw-rw-r--  1 redmine redmine     49581 Dec  8 14:47 development.log
-rw-r--r--  1 redmine redmine 182700709 Dec  9 12:05 production.log

Entonces dice que rotó el archivo de registro, pero en realidad no pasó nada. ¿Cuál puede ser la razón de eso?

Answer 1

Una razón podría ser que usted está listando sus registros como usuario de Redmine, mientras que logrotate funciona como root, por lo que la lista de directorios no los muestra.

Prefiero crear un archivo /etc/logrotate.d/redmine con el siguiente contenido:

/path/to/your/redmine/log/production.log {
daily
missingok
rotate 31
compress
delaycompress
notifempty
copytruncate
} 

Luego prueba por:

sudo /usr/sbin/logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/redmine

Answer 2

El problema resultó ser permisos incorrectos en logla carpeta. Logrotate no lo procesó porque tenía acceso de escritura grupal. Después de ejecutarlo chmod 755en la carpeta de registro, todo empezó a funcionar.
