logrotate cron job not rotating certain logs
Solution 1:
SELinux was restricting the access to logrotate on log files in directories which does not have the required SELinux file context type. "/var/log" directory has "var_log_t" file context, and logrotate was able to do the needful. So the solution was to set this on my application log files and it's parent directory:
semanage fcontext -a -t var_log_t <directory/logfile>
restorecon -v <directory/logfile>
