There is a problem with the /etc/logrotate.d/syslog:
/var/log/mail/* {
rotate 5
weekly
postrotate
/usr/bin/killall -HUP syslogd
endscript
}
/var/log/news/* {
rotate 5
weekly
postrotate
/usr/bin/killall -HUP syslogd
endscript
}
The compress option is enabled in /etc/logrotate.conf
So each compress file is logrotated and the result is :
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 23 04:02 mail.warn
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 23 04:02 mail.warn.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 23 04:02 mail.warn.1.gz.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 23 04:02 mail.warn.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 23 04:02 mail.warn.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 23 04:02
mail.warn.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul 23 04:02
mail.warn.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 277 Jul 16 04:02
mail.warn.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz.1.gz
