[quote="rgerhards":15ajwiqe]Do you use inotify mode? This is required.
Do you rotate the log files away or do you rotate the directory away that
they are contained in. I think if the directory is rotated (moved and
re-created to be precise) we will not be able to monitor the new one
without a restart.[/quote:15ajwiqe]

Assuming this was directed at me and not Rajat - it's just log files being
rotated in /var/log, so /var/log/app.log /var/log/app_error.log etc...  I
didn't specifically state to use inotify in the conf file, so I'll make
that update and report back.

Thanks!
