Apache log rotate configuration
HI

i was trying to configure logrotate for my apache server and it's not working properly.

here is my lodrotate configuration

Code:
/var/log/httpd/*log {
    daily
    missingok
    notifempty
    sharedscripts
    compress
    delaycompress
    postrotate
        /sbin/service httpd reload > /dev/null 2>/dev/null || true
    endscript
}

And here is the logs directory

Code:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root         1 Dec  4 09:10 jk-runtime-status.5767.lock
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root root         0 Dec  5 03:23 ssl_request_log

as you can see log is rotated with date ext but apache is still writing logs to rotated file no to new files(new files size is 0 bytes)
