Looking closely this seems to be the part that is broken:
# systemctl kill -s HUP rsyslog.service
Failed to kill unit rsyslog.service: Input/output error
rsyslog *does* receive the HUP, as /var/log/messages seems to indicate:
Aug 7 10:48:53 srvvm01 rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="8.1901.0"
x-pid="96" x-info="https://www.rsyslog.com";] rsyslogd was HUPed
Apparently only systemd thinks that something went wrong, but
this is sufficient to break log file rotation :-(.
This is highly important. The host in question is our EMail server.
I have to move back to sysvinit, if logging and rotation don't work.
This is an LXC container. Host and container are both running Debian 10
and systemd 241-7~deb10u4.

Harri

LXC's upstream stated they will not fix this for now, and I don't have
the intent of diving into this myself.
I'm closing the bug, but if upstream moves on it feel free to either
reopen it or open a new one.
Cheers!
