Description Corey Welton 2016-06-07 20:13:32 UTC 
Description of problem:
snap 14.1 on RHEL7



How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install $snap; wait long enough for logrotate to take place, or trigger manually.
2.  Check root mail


Actual results:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

error: error opening /var/log/candlepin/cpdb.log: Permission denied
error: error opening /var/log/candlepin/cpinit.log: Permission denied

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


Expected results:
No errors.

Additional info:
This appears to be differnt than 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1142677
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1212955

It also blocks, in my estimation, clean verification of said bug(s), if the logs are not accessible at all.

Upstream bug has been created
Comment 3 Corey Welton 2016-06-20 15:44:12 UTC 
This appears to be fixed in snap 16.  After updating to this snap, I am no longer getting these messages in root mail.
