This is the result of a cron job, most likely the log rotation. Go look
in /etc/logrotate.d and read the config files there. It will start to
make sense.
Every time logrotate "rotates" a file, it really is just zipping and
renaming the current one, and then reloading http so that it sees the
missing file and starts a new one.
