Everything restarts again, except php-fpm, which has this message:
$ sudo service php-fpm start
Another FPM instance seems to already listen on /var/run/php-fpm.sock

I'm wondering if there's something to worry over.
Thanks.

Seems fine. Check files under /etc/logrotate.d/, does any of them reload or restart dovecot service? also the php-fpm service.
