Re: Logs not rotating

[Dominic Rivera <dominic semicolonpee com>]

Try:
]# logrotate --debug --verbose --force

which will force logrotate to try and rotate all of your logs, and  
output them in a verbose fashion in debug mode so your logs will not  
actually get rotated.

Note that logrotate will also include all of the files in  
/etc/logrotate.d


I suspect you will find the problem with the first command, if not send  
the output and we can try and help you.
