Logging continues to old file after USR1

[gggritso]

I'm using gUnicorn 0.14.2 with the following config (truncated):

pidfile = '/some_loc/myapp.pid'

user = 'user'
group = 'group'

daemon = True

proc_name = 'myapp'
errorlog = '/var/log/gunicorn/myapp.log'

and the following logrotate conf for the app:

/var/log/gunicorn/myapp.log {
    daily
    missingok
    rotate 14
    compress
    notifempty
    create 640 user group
    postrotate
        kill -USR1 `cat /someloc/myapp.pid`
    endscript
}

When the logrotate script runs, 2012-05-15 06:53:52 [16634] [INFO] Handling signal: usr1 shows up in the myapp.1 file, however, all further logging continues to go to themyapp.1 file instead of the myapp file.

I just tried logrotate on a new machine with latest head and couldn't reproduce. Can you confirm it is still happening with latest head ?

Tried again, could not reproduce it. Closing. Thanks!

Can reproduce with gunicorn 19.6.0.
Steps:

1. set accesslog = "path/to/access/log"
2. move file "mv path/to/access/log path/to/access/log2"
3. kill -USR1 pid
4. empty file path/to/access/log created but access log stream goes to path/to/access/log2

I'm using Python 3.5.2
Ubuntu xenial 16.04

@shturman since this issue is four years old, would you mind simply filing a new one so we can track it without pinging the original poster who marked it resolved?
