Multiple errors here, first hint: "man 8 logrotate" is a good start.
Second: wrong order of lines:
diff -U2
[code]
--- your logstash-rotate
+++ corrected logstash-rotate
@@ -7,6 +7,7 @@
missingok
notifempty
- postrotate
size 100M
+ sharedscripts
+ postrotate
/bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/logstash.pid 2>/dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true
endscript
[/code]
In short: "postrotate" line is in wrong position, add line "sharedscripts"
