  • rsyslog logs were being rotated regardless of whether they exceeded their maixmum size. This was due to "-f" flag passed to logrotate in cron job.

  • After rotation, /var/log/syslog was never written to again. Instead, logs were written to /var/log/syslog.1. This was due to rsyslog not properly closing the file descriptor to the pre-rotated log.

  • Also addresses issue systemd-journald[224]: [/etc/systemd/journald.conf:21] Failed to parse size value, ignoring:  #528

  • Also brought back time-related rotation via the new(er) maxsize option, which performs a boolean OR operation. If the log exceeds the maxsize OR the log hasn't been rotated in the specified, it will be rotated. Using the older size option, the time-based rotation was ignored.

nvoke-rc.d rsyslog rotate > /dev/null [](start = 9, length = 37)

in /etc/init.d/rsyslog, rotate is doing the kill HUP. why not use invoke-rc.d rsyslog rotate?

It was not working properly. It was confirmed as a bug present in our version of init-system-helpers: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=672218.

There seem to be two workarounds:

  1. service rsyslog rotate >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
  2. kill -HUP $(cat /var/run/rsyslogd.pid)

I have tested the latter solution. I did not try the former, as the || true seems a bit hacky. I can test it if you'd like.

/etc/init.d/rsyslog rotate > /dev/null
