If I run logrotate I get log does not need rotating (log has been already rotated) and the log file is not rotated. Why that?



My log rotate conf:



/var/log/capp/*.log {
missingok
rotate 90
daily
notifempty
compress
delaycompress
}


Before I run logrotate I remove the line



"/var/log/capp/server.log" 2019-4-1-7:0:0


from file /var/lib/logrotate/logrotate.status



logrotate output:



/> logrotate -v /etc/logrotate.d/capp 
reading config file /etc/logrotate.d/capp
Allocating hash table for state file, size 15360 B

Handling 1 logs

rotating pattern: /var/log/capp/*.log after 1 days (90 rotations)
empty log files are not rotated, old logs are removed
considering log /var/log/capp/server.log
log does not need rotating (log has been already rotated)


and the log file is not rotated:



/> ls -la  /var/log/capp/server.log*
-rw-r--r-- 1 capp capp 272962507 1. Apr 07:00 /var/log/capp/server.log
