Maybe it was purging okay then.
I figured it was my fault we ran out of space, it may really be you 
guys's fault.

Looks like someone switched to a different log rotator or 
logrotate.conf file or something.

Chris, isn't that the weekend you upgraded all those packages?

I ask because
1. logrotate.conf no longer has compress turned on
2. /var/log/httpd's logs aren't set to be rotated automatically.

Were they ever being rotated using logrotate, or was it done by some 
internal apache config file setting?
