I'm getting a system email with the following text.
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate: error running shared postrotate script for
/var/log/apache-ssl/*.log
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1
Two things of note. First the log.1 files seems to be the active log files. Secondly the current log files have an older date, the same date as when I think the logrotate started failing on the apache-ssl files. ...
What is in /etc/logrotate.d/apache or the related logrotate config file?
dunsmuir:/etc/logrotate.d# cat apache-ssl /var/log/apache-ssl/*.log { weekly missingok rotate 52 compress delaycompress notifempty create 640 <uid> <uid2> sharedscripts postrotate /etc/init.d/apache-ssl reload > /dev/null endscript }
******************* Hmmm ...
ran "/etc/init.d/apache-ssl reload" manually.
Which causes this to happen:
dunsmuir:/etc/logrotate.d# /etc/init.d/apache-ssl reload Reloading apache-ssl configurationNo /usr/sbin/apache-ssl found running; none killed. failed
hmm ... dunsmuir:/etc/logrotate.d# ps aux USER PID %CPU %MEM VSZ RSS TTY STAT START TIME COMMAND root 1 0.0 0.1 1260 72 ? S 2004 0:33 init [2] root 2 0.0 0.0 0 0 ?

This also failed, sort of :
dunsmuir:/etc/logrotate.d# /etc/init.d/apache-ssl restart Reloading apache-ssl modulesstart-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 12457: No such process No process in pidfile `/var/run/apache-ssl.pid' found running; none killed. Reading key for server www.amason.net:443 Launching... /usr/lib/apache-ssl/gcache pid=20301
I killed all processes related to apache-ssl and started it from scratch.
What would cause something like that?
Thanks,
