continuous-integration/drone/push Build is passing
I've noticed that some log files, especially /var/log/syslog were empty. After investigating, I've realized that it was happening after a log rotation by logrotate. The old mechanism, `invoke-rc.d rsyslog rotate` isn't working anymore on Debian 10. It will fail with a not so explicit message : [FAIL] Closing open files: rsyslogd failed! Long story short, it seems that the pid file (`/run/rsyslogd.pid`) isn't created any more, so start-stop-daemon as used by /etc/init.d/rsyslog will fail. Explaining the error message. Debian 10 rsyslog now brings `/usr/lib/rsyslog/rsyslog-rotate` that is used by logrotate. It will send the signal HUP the 'right' way, so rsyslog will be aware of the log rotation. Sadly, this script isn't present in Debian 9 nor 8, so the logrotate configuration for rsyslog is now a template, using the right command for the right version. |
