Question
Got an email from my server about a failed Cron Job
I have a LEMP server running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. (Nginx 1.8)
I got this email about a failed cron job.
Anyone have a solution?
Subject
Cron <root@domain> test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )
Body
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
error: error running shared postrotate script for '/var/log/nginx/*.log '
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1
The only edit ive made lately was open /etc/logrotate.conf
I uncommented the following line so my log files will be compressed
# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
compress
Donno if that would have caused it?

This seems to be a bug in the
postrotate
script in/etc/logrotate.d/nginx
as reported here. Try:@franklinkim Thanks Kevin. That solved the issue
