[rabbitmq-discuss] After weekly log rotation was done, the command rabbitmqctl rotate_logs cannot stop.

[Nate]

I setup a 3 node rabbitmq cluster for online service and everything works
fine; however, after weekly log rotation was done, I found that two
rabbitmq-servers still wrote the logs into rabbitmqX.log.1, not
rabbitmqX.log. At the meantime, I use the command "ps axjf" to check the
system and I got some following information. 

 1905  8550  1905  1905 ?           -1 S        0   0:00  \_ crond 
 8550  8567  8567  8567 ?           -1 Ss       0   0:00      \_ /bin/bash
/usr/bin/run-parts /etc/cron.daily 
 8567  8942  8567  8567 ?           -1 S        0   0:00          \_ /bin/sh
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate 
 8942  8943  8567  8567 ?           -1 S        0   0:00          |   \_
/usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf 
 8943  8944  8567  8567 ?           -1 S        0   0:00          |       \_
sh -c ?            /sbin/service rabbitmq-server rotate-logs > /dev/null? ?
    
 8944  8946  8567  8567 ?           -1 S        0   0:00          |        
  \_ /bin/sh /sbin/service rabbitmq-server rotate-logs 
 8946  8951  8567  8567 ?           -1 S        0   0:00          |        
      \_ /bin/sh /etc/init.d/rabbitmq-server rotate-logs 
 8951  8954  8567  8567 ?           -1 S        0   0:00          |        
          \_ /bin/sh /usr/sbin/rabbitmqctl rotate_logs 
 8954  8963  8567  8567 ?           -1 S        0   0:00          |        
              \_ su rabbitmq -s /bin/sh -c /usr/lib/rabbitmq/bin/rabbitmqctl
 "ro 
 8963  8972  8972  8972 ?           -1 Ssl    101   0:00          |        
                  \_ /usr/lib/erlang/erts-5.9/bin/beam.smp -- -root
/usr/lib/erla 

It seems like system is doing postrotate command "/sbin/service
rabbitmq-server rotate-logs > /dev/null", but system cannot finish the task. 
 /var/log/rabbitmq/*.log { 
        weekly 
        missingok 
        rotate 20 
        compress 
        delaycompress 
        notifempty 
        sharedscripts 
        postrotate 
            /sbin/service rabbitmq-server rotate-logs > /dev/null 
        endscript 
} 

Rabbitmq still work fine for sending message, but log roatation is getting
stuck.   
I have no idea about this case and don't know how to recover the log without
stopping the system. I need a help.. 

Thanks in advance, 

Nate
