我有一个正常工作的 logrotate 配置，直到突然停止工作。我猜想在我log更新应用程序时删除并重新创建文件夹后，它停止旋转我的日志。以下是配置和 logrotate 日志的相关部分。
/etc/logrotate.conf
# see "man logrotate" for details
# rotate log files weekly
weekly
# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs
rotate 4
# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
create
# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
#compress
# packages drop log rotation information into this directory
include /etc/logrotate.d
# no packages own wtmp, or btmp -- we'll rotate them here
/var/log/wtmp {
missingok
monthly
create 0664 root utmp
rotate 1
}
/var/log/btmp {
missingok
monthly
create 0660 root utmp
rotate 1
}
# system-specific logs may be configured here
/var/lib/redmine/log/production.log{
daily
rotate 30
compress
delaycompress
missingok
notifempty
}
在我手动运行 logrotate 之后：
rotating pattern: /var/lib/redmine/log/production.log after 1 days (30 rotations)
empty log files are not rotated, old logs are removed
considering log /var/lib/redmine/log/production.log
log needs rotating
rotating log /var/lib/redmine/log/production.log, log->rotateCount is 30
dateext suffix '-20151209'
glob pattern '-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]'
compressing log with: /bin/gzip

在我列出日志目录之后：
ll /var/lib/redmine/log/
total 178484
drwxrwxr-x 2 redmine redmine 4096 Dec 9 12:05 ./
drwxr-xr-x 20 redmine redmine 4096 Dec 6 23:56 ../
-rw-rw-r-- 1 redmine redmine 49581 Dec 8 14:47 development.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 redmine redmine 182700709 Dec 9 12:05 production.log
所以它说它确实轮换了日志文件，但实际上什么也没发生。这是什么原因造成的？
答案1
一个原因可能是您正在像 redmine 用户一样列出您的日志，而 logrotate 以 root 身份工作，因此目录列表不会显示它们
我宁愿创建文件 /etc/logrotate.d/redmine 其中包含以下内容：
/path/to/your/redmine/log/production.log {
daily
missingok
rotate 31
compress
delaycompress
notifempty
copytruncate
}
然后通过以下方式测试：
sudo /usr/sbin/logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/redmine
答案2
问题出在文件夹的权限错误log。Logrotate 无法处理它，因为它具有组写入权限。在chmod 755日志文件夹上运行后，一切开始正常工作。
