Hi,

I make a new install of iRedMail 0.9.9 on Debian Stretch.
Each week after log rotation all log file are empty (syslog, mail.log, auth.log, ...). I need to restart rsyslog service then log are working again until next sunday.
I didn't have this issue with iRedMail 0.9.8, I wonder if this issue could be related 0.9.9 but I didn't try if this issue is reproducible yet.

Has anyone else encountered the same issue?

Sounds like logrotate didn't restart rsyslog service (or other similar actions) to recreate new (empty) log file.
Please check /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog to make sure it has "postrotate" commands.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer.
I didn't found error in /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog.
I replace the postrotate command in /etc/logrotate.d/php7.0-fpm with the command from the package and now weekly rotation work fine.

    postrotate
        /usr/lib/php/php7.0-fpm-reopenlogs
    endscript

I didn't try yet with an installation out of the box if this issue is reproducible with Debian 9.
