running script with arg /var/log/httpd/*log : "

Note that the disposeName is the name of the archive just created.  The
logrotate configs are:
httpd:
/var/log/httpd/*log {
    start 0
    daily
    missingok
    ifempty
    sharedscripts
    postrotate
        /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/httpd.pid 2>/dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true
    endscript
}

logrotate.conf:
# see "man logrotate" for details
# rotate log files weekly

# keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs
rotate 4

# create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
create

# uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
#compress

# RPM packages drop log rotation information into this directory
include /etc/logrotate.d

# no packages own wtmp -- we'll rotate them here
/var/log/wtmp {
    monthly
    create 0664 root utmp
    rotate 1

# system-specific logs may be also be configured here.
