[asterisk-users] Asterisk Log rotate not working

You can check whether logrotate sees/understands the asterisk's file in /etc/logrotate.d volume by looking through 
 /var/log/logstatus 

You should see names of the files you plan to rotate
Actually you should do 
logrotate -s /var/log/logstatus /etc/logrotate.conf to see these files

hope this helps

How can you tell that the logrotate cron job was run?

At what time it was configured to run? Did you see its output in the
logs?

And please, do make some minimal effort to RTFM and answer questions on
your own. Some tools for your disposal:

  rpm -ql logrotate | grep cron
  grep -i crom /var/log/messages

Cron jobs which have failed and/or had an output send a message to the
user who ran them (root, in your case). Is there a "sendmail" (sendmail,
postfix, whatever) running on the system? If so, where does root's mail
go to? Read it.
