you are correct. Carbon rotates also. I have created an patch against that problem. Could you please apply the following patch against your installed log.py (/usr/share/pyshared/carbon/log.py): http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-graphite/packages/graphite-carbon.git;a=blob;f=debian/patches/disable_internal_logroate.patch;h=eb9bb1f1c125b3d6662cd687aab071870f1149ce;hb=b9bb0232108dd8eececc4c6ec73a54a62122c248 Steps: - stop carbon - apply the patch - remove all logs from var/log/carbon/ - start carbon - activate logrotate again - wait one day - restart carbon - force run logroate If it works on your side, I will submit it to upstream.
