On centos at least, rotating the radius.log file (compress and rename) results in lost log entries as a new log file is not opened. Before I go off and code this so the server is stopped momentarily, is there another strategy for handling log rotation while keeping the server up?
FreeRADIUS version? There was a file locking bug fixed a year or two ago. Log rotation uses copytruncate, which I suspect was the (unknown at the time) workaround because of this. Try using 3.0.20, if that still doesn't fix it try also removing copytruncate from the logrotate config. -- Matthew
