I also can confirm adding "create 640 syslog adm" to
/etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog fixes the problem.
@Gustavo, you should change the /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog file from this:
/var/log/syslog
{
rotate 7
daily
missingok
notifempty
delaycompress
compress
postrotate
reload rsyslog >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
to this:
/var/log/syslog
{
rotate 7
daily
missingok
notifempty
delaycompress
compress
create 640 syslog adm
postrotate
reload rsyslog >/dev/null 2>&1 || true
endscript
}
and now you're ok.
And for the record, I also moved away from syslog-ng to rsyslog, so I
think it may cause this bug (perhaps a package's install/uninstall
script).
Regards
