/usr/local/nagiosxi/var/*log ownership

[hzsoliel]

Hi support:

I have this werid problem. Everytime when logrotate runs and the the logs in /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/ are rotated, the newly created logs belong to root. This causes the trouble since the PHP processes which write to the logs get the permission issue and they die. I cacn't figure out why this happens. Please see my /etc/cron.d/nagiosxi and /etc/logrotate.d/nagioxi

Lets change this in the /etc/logrotate.d/nagiosxi

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/var/*log {
    missingok
    notifempty
    size 5M
    rotate 1
    compress
}

to this

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/var/*log {
    missingok
    notifempty
    size 5M
    create 0664 nagios nagios
    rotate 1
    compress
}
