I have added the following lines to /etc/logrotate.conf
# system-specific logs may be configured here
/var/log/messages {
rotate 5
weekly
create 0644
postrotate
/sbin/killall -HUP syslogd
/usr/local/bin/summsg
endscript
}
Previously log was rotated on 16 23 30 Sep.Even on Oct 31st log is not
rotated.
Any clues?
my original file above this addition was
# see "man logrotate" for details
# rotate log files weekly
weekly
# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs
rotate 4
# send errors to root
errors root
# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
create
# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
#compress
# RPM packages drop log rotation information into this directory
include /etc/logrotate.d
# no packages own lastlog or wtmp -- we'll rotate them here
/var/log/wtmp {
monthly
create 0664 root utmp
rotate 1
}
# system-specific logs may be configured here
