- mysqladmin lines work fine when run as root
- mysql is able to write to the mysql-slow.log

I want to see if there is anything that would say that there was a problem.
- Any ideas on why the logrotate is not working?
Why is logrotate not automatically rotated?

I think the problem is in assigning owner, group and permissions of 3 things. The /mylogs/ folder (root root) The /mylogs/log file (admin admin)
The create option of logrotate.conf (create 0640 root utmp) Someone with logrotate running correctly. Please let me know how you have assigned the previous 3 values. the folder — the file — the create config in logrotate.conf
/var/log/syslog not getting rotated
I have a fresh install of ubuntu 20.04. I have set daily rotation in /etc/logrotate.d/rsyslog file with a maxsize of 1M but the /var/log/syslog and kern.log file keeps increasing. Here is the rsyslog and /etc/logrotate.conf configuration. rsyslog file
