You are changing permission on logrotate.d. you need to chmod 644 /etc/logrotate.conf
And chown root:root /etc/logrotate.conf
And then it could work
nope , i did it, still no change in var/log sizes

You need to audit your /etc/ permissions, because there could be problem with other software, you may try tochmod o-rwx
on files in etc, and lookbook into syslog for errors

I found that this error appears when there are log files listed in the logrotate.conf that do not exist (This could be happening because the service that is supposed to generate the log is not running). Either delete the entries or remove the packages that are associated with them.
