Bronson" Subject: newsyslog errors (4.7) Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I noticed the following each night when syslog is running: (they are logged to the console) Oct 15 19:14:16 newsyslog[258]: logfile turned over Oct 15 19:14:16 /kernel: syslogd: /var/log/cron: No such file or directory Oct 15 19:14:16 /kernel: syslogd: /var/log/maillog: No such file or directory Oct 15 19:14:16 /kernel: syslogd: /var/log/daemon: No such file or directory Oct 15 19:14:16 /kernel: syslogd: /var/log/security: No such file or directory Huh? - these files ARE there and they are fine. But even after a reboot..each night I see these. Sometimes it is the same file(s) each night and sometimes it is different. Everything rotates just fine, but these errors are weird. It is like syslogd is starting BEFORE the new files are created and hence dont see the file as actually being there! Any thoughts? -- J.D.
