Description Guðmundur D. H. 2004-05-30 18:03:55 UTC 
Description of problem:
I get this message in /var/log/messages on my Fedora Core 2 machines:
May 30 04:16:44 XXXX logrotate: ALERT exited abnormally with [1]

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
logrotate-3.7-4.1

These are all clean installations...
Comment 1 Elliot Lee 2004-06-02 17:20:14 UTC 
If you run '/usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf' as root, are
there any messages that might help diagnose the problem?
Comment 2 Guðmundur D. H. 2004-06-03 00:21:22 UTC 
[root@XXXX root]# /usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf
error: stat of /var/log/ppp/connect-errors failed: No such file or
directory
[root@XXXX root]# echo $?
1
[root@XXXX root]#
