阿帕奇：2.4.29
我的要求是 error_log 需要轮换，并且 error_log 需要有最新的日志，error_log.1 应该有比 error_log 更旧的日志，error_log.2 应该有比 error_log.1 更旧的日志，依此类推。但问题是第一次轮换后 error_log 变空，而 error_log.1 拥有所有日志。之后只有 error_log.1 不断被日志填满，没有创建其他日志文件，error_log 也保持为空。以下是日志文件所在的位置：
[root@xxx]# ls -l
total 56
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 37720 Jun 23 06:25 error_log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4454 Jun 23 06:25 httpd.log
这是我的配置文件的位置：
[root@xxx]# ls
test_apache_logrotate.conf logrotate.rsyslog
[root@xxx]# ```
And here are the contents of the conf file:
```/tmp/tools/error_log {
su root root
rotate 7
size 300
nocompress
missingok
notifempty
create 640 root adm
sharedscripts
postrotate
/usr/bin/pkill -HUP rsyslogd 2> /dev/null || true
endscript
} ```
And then I run the logrotate on the conf file:
```[root@xxx]# /usr/sbin/logrotate -fv /etc/logrotate.d/test_apache_logrotate.conf
reading config file /etc/logrotate.d/test_apache_logrotate.conf

moving /tmp/tools/error_log.5 to /tmp/tools/error_log.6 (rotatecount 7, logstart 1, i 5),
old log /tmp/tools/error_log.5 does not exist
moving /tmp/tools/error_log.4 to /tmp/tools/error_log.5 (rotatecount 7, logstart 1, i 4),
old log /tmp/tools/error_log.4 does not exist
moving /tmp/tools/error_log.3 to /tmp/tools/error_log.4 (rotatecount 7, logstart 1, i 3),
old log /tmp/tools/error_log.3 does not exist
moving /tmp/tools/error_log.2 to /tmp/tools/error_log.3 (rotatecount 7, logstart 1, i 2),
old log /tmp/tools/error_log.2 does not exist
moving /tmp/tools/error_log.1 to /tmp/tools/error_log.2 (rotatecount 7, logstart 1, i 1),
old log /tmp/tools/error_log.1 does not exist
moving /tmp/tools/error_log.0 to /tmp/tools/error_log.1 (rotatecount 7, logstart 1, i 0),
old log /tmp/tools/error_log.0 does not exist
log /tmp/tools/error_log.8 doesn't exist -- won't try to dispose of it
moving /tmp/tools/error_log to /tmp/tools/error_log.1
creating new /tmp/tools/error_log mode = 0640 uid = 0 gid = 4
running postrotate script
旋转后：
[root@xxx]# ls -l
total 56
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 0 Jun 23 06:35 error_log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 37720 Jun 23 06:25 error_log.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 4454 Jun 23 06:25 httpd.log
[root@xxx]#```
Thus it can be see that error_log is not having any contents.
Also after this I ran curl command from a client machine, after which the log contents changed:
```[root@xxx]# cd /tmp/tools/
[root@xxx]# ls -l
total 412
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 0 Jun 23 06:35 error_log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 398696 Jun 23 06:46 error_log.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 11214 Jun 23 06:46 httpd.log ```
From the above it can seen that error_log.1 contents have changed.
I again give the logrotate on the conf file now:
```[root@xxx]# /usr/sbin/logrotate -fv /etc/logrotate.d/test_apache_logrotate.conf
reading config file /etc/logrotate.d/test_apache_logrotate.conf

log does not need rotating (log is empty)
not running postrotate script, since no logs were rotated ```
Now checking if the logs are rotated:
'''[root@xxx]# cd /tmp/tools/
[root@xxx]# ls -l
total 540
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 0 Jun 23 06:35 error_log
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 524839 Jun 23 06:49 error_log.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13710 Jun 23 06:46 httpd.log
从上面我们可以看出日志没有被轮换。
