Hi,
I needed to logrotate a fil named qmail-queue.log from qmail-scanner.
So i've edit /etc/syslog.conf and changed it to:
*.info;qmail-queue.none;auth.none;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none
/var/log/messages
(...)
# qmail-queue logs
qmail-queue /var/spool/qscan/qmail-queue.log
Also, i've edit /etc/logrotate.d/syslog and changed to
/var/log/messages /var/log/secure /var/log/maillog /var/log/spooler
/var/log/boot.log /var/log/cron /var/log/auth
/var/spool/qscan/qmail-queue.log {
sharedscripts
postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid 2> /dev/null` 2>
/dev/null || true
endscript
}
----------------------------------------------------
I've restarted the syslog service
In the end all i got was the file not being rotated as well as
/var/log/messages:
Mar 21 08:24:10 mail kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped.
Mar 21 08:24:10 mail kernel: Kernel log daemon terminating.
Mar 21 08:24:11 mail syslog: klogd shutdown succeeded
Mar 21 08:24:11 mail exiting on signal 15
What am i doing wrong ?
Any help would be appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Mário Gamito
