Has anyone else had any trouble with the logrotate script working? My files are getting quite large and I don't have one compressed archive of older files. I did collapse my syslog server to write to only/var/log/messages and /var/log/mail. The script runs, but never rotates the files. Any ideas why? Here is some of my files:
<SNIP> Yep... SusE 9 has trouble, here. I changed my specs to one day apiece & still they grew. You want them rotated...? Add '--force' to the /etc/cron.daily/ logrotate file. They'll rotate. My desktop is a SuSE 9.0 Pro with an AMD Athalon 700Mhz processor. I have had no problems with logrotate, and I have added a few other logs to the list.
