Queue_log file rotation issue

FreePBX Applications / Modules

I’m facing an issue that is impacting call center functionality.

The issue is: Agents are login to the queues in the morning at 8AM Central time. They also start receiving calls around that time. The issue is that all those records are not written in the queue_log file but in the queue_log-20210226 (the previous file that is already rotated). When I open that rotated file named queue_log-20210226 file at the end I see the following entries:
1614348004|MANAGER|2010|Local/1707@from-queue/n|ADDMEMBER|
1614348048|MANAGER|2010|Local/1707@from-queue/n|REMOVEMEMBER|

As you see the UNIX time is correct (Friday 26th at 8 AM a member logged in and after that accepted a call from NXXNXXXXXX) but that entry is written in the rotated file and not in the queue_log file. I have to manually issue “logger reload” from Asterisk cli to be able to make asterisk to write into the proper queue_log file. Otherwise it will keep writing all entries into queue_log-20210226 until some point of the current day (around noon).

Any ideas why is that and how to fix it?

Post the contents of your

/etc/logrotate.d/asterisk

Make sure you logger reload in the postrotate in the stanza that rotates the queue log

Also post

ls -l /var/log/asterisk

to check that files are rotated at 06:25 local time

Again

Make sure you logger reload in the postrotate in the stanza that rotates the queue log

How did you install FreePBX ?

5

from the official distro image. I see it there:

{
daily
missingok
rotate 7
notifempty
sharedscripts
create 0640 asterisk asterisk
su asterisk asterisk
postrotate
/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx ‘logger reload’ > /dev/null 2> /dev/null
endscript
}

6

Try

/var/log/asterisk/queue_log {
daily
missingok
rotate 30
notifempty
sharedscripts
create 0640 asterisk asterisk
su asterisk asterisk
postrotate
/usr/sbin/asterisk -rx ‘logger reload’ > /dev/null 2> /dev/null
endscript
}

Thanks…will check if the change has some affect tomorrow.

well, it is still happening…doesn’t make any sense. I’m going to restart the server tonight and see if something will change. Sangoma support advised me to remove queuestats module. I might do that as well.
