We recently upgraded to Omnibus gitlab-ce-8.12.3-ce.0.el6.x86_64 on Centos 6 but it seems log rotation stops working.
gitlab-ctl status
run: gitlab-workhorse: (pid 15639) 431175s; run: log: (pid 781) 990494s

Here is from /etc/gitlab/gitlab.rb
logging[‘logrotate_frequency’] = “daily” # rotate logs daily
logging[‘logrotate_size’] = nil # do not rotate by size by default
logging[‘logrotate_rotate’] = 10 # keep 30 rotated logs
logging[‘logrotate_compress’] = “compress” # see ‘man logrotate’
logging[‘logrotate_method’] = “copytruncate” # see ‘man logrotate’
logging[‘logrotate_postrotate’] = nil # no postrotate command by default
logrotate[‘enable’] = true
gitlab-ctl reconfigure
gitlab-ctl restart logrotate
But the logs are not rotating, eg: /var/log/gitlab/gitlab-rails/production.log keeps growing. Any ideas?
