Hi,

I tried to rotate ospf log file which is created by
ospfd in zebra. 

I set up logrotate.conf like:

/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log {
    daily
    rotate 7
    copytruncate
    compress
}


and execute logrotate as:

 /usr/sbin/logrotate -s /var/log/logrotate.status
/etc/logrotate.conf -f --debug

it shows :

rotating pattern: /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log 
forced from command line (7 rotations)
empty log files are rotated, old logs are removed
considering log /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log
  log needs rotating
rotating log /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log,
log->rotateCount is 7
renaming /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.7.gz to
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.8.gz (rotatecount 7,
logstart 1, i 7), 
renaming /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.6.gz to
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.7.gz (rotatecount 7,
logstart 1, i 6), 
renaming /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.5.gz to
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.6.gz (rotatecount 7,
logstart 1, i 5), 
renaming /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.4.gz to
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.5.gz (rotatecount 7,
logstart 1, i 4), 
renaming /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.3.gz to
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.4.gz (rotatecount 7,
logstart 1, i 3), 
renaming /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.2.gz to
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.3.gz (rotatecount 7,
logstart 1, i 2), 
renaming /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.1.gz to
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.2.gz (rotatecount 7,
logstart 1, i 1), 
renaming /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.0.gz to
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.1.gz (rotatecount 7,
logstart 1, i 0), 
copying /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log to
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.1
truncating /data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log
compressing new log with: /bin/gzip 
'/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.1'
removing old log
/data1/netflow/zebra/log/ospf.log.8.gz
[root at net log]# 

but when I check /data1/netflow/zebra/log, I noticed
there is nothing changed to ospf.log, and no
ospflog.gz is created. 

Do I miss something with configuration?

thanks

Joe
