Hi all,

Just recently started receiving the following error report every
morning:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
error: error running shared postrotate script for /var/log/mysql.log /var/log/mysql/mysql.log /var/log/mysql/mysql-slow.log 
run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate reads:

  #!/bin/sh

  test -x /usr/sbin/logrotate || exit 0
  /usr/sbin/logrotate /etc/logrotate.conf

and /etc/logrotate.conf reads:

  # see "man logrotate" for details
  # rotate log files weekly
  weekly

  # keep 4 weeks worth of backlogs
  rotate 4

  # create new (empty) log files after rotating old ones
  create

  # uncomment this if you want your log files compressed
  #compress

  # packages drop log rotation information into this directory
  include /etc/logrotate.d

  # no packages own wtmp, or btmp -- we'll rotate them here
  /var/log/wtmp {
      missingok
      monthly
      create 0664 root utmp
      rotate 1
  }

  /var/log/btmp {
      missingok
      monthly
      create 0664 root utmp
      rotate 1
  }

  # system-specific logs may be configured here


Any ideas why this error is occuring and how to solve it?

Sebastian
