Logrotate not rotating

I have set new conf for logrotate, but I just couldn't get it working.

Here's my logrotate:

/home/deployer/abc/shared/log/*.log {
  daily
  missingok
  rotate 30
  compress
  delaycompress
  size 5M
  copytruncate
}

Here's what I have tried:

Removed status file:

deployer@qapp01:~/abc/current/log$ cat /var/lib/logrotate/status 
logrotate state -- version 2

Ran logrotate with debug mode

But my app logs are still not rotated:

I have run out of clue, even after googling for various solutions but to no avail.


You've specified both size and daily in your configuration for those logfiles. My understanding is that size causes any time based rotation to be ingored (see similar questions here - this one for example).

Based on that, the only files I'd expect to be rotated right now are production.log and nginx.access.log. The output from your debug run using sudo shows that logrotate would indeed have rotated these files.

Remember that when running with -d logrotate won't make any changes. If you want more information about what is happening as well as making the changes use -v instead.

Note that (in general) logrotate expects to run as root. Notice that you don't get the warnings about switching euid when running via sudo.


Here's how I got it working:

  1. Per Paul Haldane's answer above, ensure it's either size or daily.
  2. Ensure the file in /etc/logrotate.d/abc is owned by root - sudo chown root:root /etc/logrotate.d/abc.
  3. Ensure the file in /etc/logrotate.d/abc has the 644 permission at least - sudo chmod 644 /etc/logrotate.d/abc.
  4. For logrotate to has the right permission to work, add this to the logrotate file in /etc/logrotate.d/abc with the right user permission. For example, my log files are owned by deployer:deployer, then I add su deployer deployer to /etc/logrotate.d/abc.
