From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030701 Description of problem: Every day logwatch mails me a week or so's worth of logs. I'm using the default logwatch.conf, and it has Range = yesterday. Maybe I'm wrong, but it would appear that this should make logwatch only mail yesterday's entries out every day, but I quite clearly get everything in the log directory. :) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): logwatch-4.3.1-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Allow log entries to pile up 2. Let logwatch run 3. Read your email Actual Results: One day's worth of entries mailed Expected Results: Everything is mailed Additional info:

Upon further investigation, bug id 102746 is correct, I believe this is limited to up2date logs. There have been so many lately. :)
In case you didn't already figure it out, it's because several of the conf files in /etc/log.d/conf/logfiles are missing the line: *ApplyStdDate up2date.conf isn't the only one affected....
Thank you. I put that entry in the file and re-ran the report successfully.
Thanks ... Redhat - is there any hope for a fix on this from you guys? I really hate to go edit a couple dozen machines... but I guess I can.
Actually, the real problem is the missing scripts in the /etc/log.d/scripts/logfiles/{autorpm,cron,up2date} directories. See bug 80496 for the solution. I guess 99438 should be marked as duplicate.
