I have set up the configuration file for uwsgi logrotate. When I tested it, it seemed it will work.
logrotate -dvf /etc/logrotate.d/uwsgi
reading config file /etc/logrotate.d/uwsgi
reading config info for "/var/log/uwsgi/*.log"
Handling 1 logs
rotating pattern: "/var/log/uwsgi/*.log" forced from command line (5 rotations)
empty log files are rotated, old logs are removed
considering log /var/log/uwsgi/uwsgi.log
log needs rotating
rotating log /var/log/uwsgi/uwsgi.log, log->rotateCount is 5
dateext suffix '-20131211'
glob pattern '-[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]'
glob finding old rotated logs failed
copying /var/log/uwsgi/uwsgi.log to /var/log/uwsgi/uwsgi.log-20131211
truncating /var/log/uwsgi/uwsgi.log
compressing log with: /bin/gzip
But the cron job was executed and nothing happened. What could be wrong? My entry is
"/var/log/uwsgi/*.log" {
copytruncate
daily
dateext
rotate 5
compress
}
In cron log I can see
Dec 11 03:45:01 myhost run-parts(/etc/cron.daily)[930]: finished logrotate
Can I get more details about "what happened" somewhere - a detailed output of the logrotate job?
I tried adding
and that seems to have worked.
