[squid-users] rotate logfiles with multiple instances of squid

Hi all,

I have a machine running multiple instances of squid, it's happily
humming along.
Debian package.

One instance uses the standard startup script, with pretty much the
default conf.

The 2nd I start using
squid -f /etc/squid/squid2.conf

The squid2.conf file references different:
http_port 3129 transparent
cache_log /var/log/squid2/cache.log
cache_store_log /var/log/squid2/store.log
access_log /var/log/squid2/access.log squid
pid_filename /var/run/squid2.pid
cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid2 20000 16 256

I have also multiple logrotate files.

1st instance:

cat /etc/logrotate.d/squid
#
# Logrotate fragment for squid.
#
/var/log/squid/*.log {
        daily
        compress
        delaycompress
        rotate 90
        missingok
        nocreate
        sharedscripts
        postrotate
                test ! -e /var/run/squid.pid || /usr/sbin/squid -k
rotate
        endscript
}

2nd instance:

cat /etc/logrotate.d/squid2
#
# Logrotate fragment for squid2.
#
/var/log/squid2/*.log {
        daily
        compress
        delaycompress
        rotate 90
        missingok
        nocreate
        sharedscripts
        postrotate
                test ! -e /var/run/squid2.pid || /usr/sbin/squid -k
rotate
        endscript
}

However, no go.
The 1st instance is quite happy.
The 2nd however has it's logfiles rotated, but squid does not write to
them, so every morning I have to restart squid manually.

Has anyone been able to get squid -k rotate working with multiple
instances ?
If so, how ?
Or is there another way to do this ?

Thanks for your time :)

Regards,
Ross
