Package: logrotate
Version: 3.7.8-6
Severity: normal
Hi,
It seems that the notifempty option is not taken into account and the
postrotate script is ran on empty files.
A way to reproduce it:
Consider the /etc/logrotate.d/test:
/root/test/logs/*.log {
create 0640 root root
dateext
daily
rotate 35
missingok
compress
delaycompress
notifempty
postrotate
echo "arguments: $@"
endscript
}
# mkdir -p /root/test/logs
# touch /root/test/logs/test1.log
# echo 'hello' > /root/test/logs/test2.log
Rotation:
# logrotate /etc/logrotate.d/test -f
arguments:
arguments: /root/test/logs/test2.log-20111222
I didn't find such behaviour on Lenny.
Regards,
Rémi
