At midnight (00.00) I run this cronjob from my crontab: Crontab: 00 * * * * root newsyslog For some reason this goes wrong; (if I run 'newsyslog' on any other time, there is no error message). bzip2: Can't open input file /var/log/maillog.0: No such file or directory. newsyslog: `bzip2 -f /var/log/maillog.0' terminated with a non-zero status (1) /var/log: -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 63162 May 16 21:20 maillog -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 109 May 16 00:00 maillog.0.bz2 -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 73674 May 16 00:00 maillog.1 -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 111 May 15 00:00 maillog.2.bz2 -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 73050 May 15 00:00 maillog.3 -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 109 May 14 00:00 maillog.4.bz2 -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 184042 May 14 00:00 maillog.5 Can somebody tell me what goes wrong here? On my other FreeBSD server the same cronjob goes ok... thanks, Jos Chrispijnhelp
