[SOLVED] CentOS 7 and logrotate

masterross · 04-02-2015, 03:01 AM

Hi guys!

This new version really makes me crazy!
Does anyone know how to setup logrotate to act as old one?
Because now the logs are rotated with date on the end.

Check logrotate.conf or the definitions for the logs in logrotate.d and see if "dateext" is mentioned.

Hi,

Thx mate!

I looked into it before but didnt see it
It's strange because in my other server still there is dateext but the logs are with .1,2,3.. on the end.
