My log is not written on the correct log file for example syslog, mail.log, mysql.log, auth.log but for some reason the latest event are written on these old log files syslog.1, auth.log.1, mail.log.1 . They are huge files because of their previous data.

I can see latest event on November 4th written correctly in [filename].1 file. What is happening here? Please help and thanks in advance.

For some reason logging stop after working without a problem. Here is the solution : https://serverfault.com/a/545623/109483

Unlike the poster there, I'm not upgrading from Squeeze because I did a fresh installation of Wheezy but still had the same problem. Interestingly the solution is similar.

Thanks.
