Bug Description
when I want to restart rsyslog it fails:
root@mail1:~# service rsyslog restart
stop: Unknown instance:
rsyslog start/running
It occurs many times. Possible it depend on logrotate, because every day logging stops (all logfiles are empty), but rsyslog is still running.
The only thing I can do is to kill rsyslogd and start it again with the service command.
