[ARGUS] logrotate

[Monah Baki]

Hi Carter,

The radium.out gets rotated every day in the format of radium.out-YYYYMMDD
(File size is in the MB), but I cannot "ra" or "ratop" any of the rotated
file nor the default radium.out. I can "ra" or "ratop" the radium.out only
when I delete radium.out and its starts populating. It's as if the
logrotate is somehow messing with all the files in /var/log/radium after
rotation.

my /etc/logrotate.d/radium:
      1 /var/log/radium/radium.out {
      2     daily
      3     missingok
      4     rotate 4
      5     minsize 1M
      6 }

I delete copytruncate just to make it as simple as possible will check
tomorrow if that resolved the issue.
