From bugs.debian.org:
Syslog-ng is dying repeatedly after logrotate runs. I believe that in most cases it continues to log to the original file, despite it having been rotated, though I am not 100% sure of this. Where it does continue running, it dies when the 2nd rotate occurs, where the logfile is gzipped. When trying to reproduce it manually, sending kill -HUP causes syslog-ng to die shortly after it gets a new PID. I am able to consistently reproduce this. No data is written to the new logfile until I manually restart syslog-ng For now, as a workaround, I have altered the post-rotate command to restart syslog-ng rather than reload. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.balabit.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
