Ever since the upgrade from wheezy to jessie a few days ago, I have been receiving the following every day: ---- /etc/cron.daily/logrotate: error: error setting owner of /var/log/polipo/polipo.log.1.gz to uid 13 and gid 13: Operation not permitted run-parts: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate exited with return code 1 ---- The directory /var/log/polipo has the permissions: drwxr-sr-x 2 proxy adm 4096 Aug 29 07:39 polipo and right now the contents of that directory look like this: ---- root@homebrew:/var/log/polipo# ls -al total 64 drwxr-sr-x 2 proxy adm 4096 Aug 29 07:39 . drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 4096 Aug 29 07:39 .. -rw------- 1 proxy adm 18854 Aug 29 09:11 polipo.log -rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 6025 Aug 26 07:40 polipo.log.1 -rw------- 1 proxy adm 0 Aug 29 07:39 polipo.log.1.gz -rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 255 Aug 25 07:11 polipo.log.2.gz -rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 425 Aug 24 07:11 polipo.log.3.gz -rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 279 Aug 23 07:11 polipo.log.4.gz -rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 328 Aug 22 07:11 polipo.log.5.gz -rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 273 Aug 21 07:11 polipo.log.6.gz -rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 288 Aug 20 07:11 polipo.log.7.gz -rw-r----- 1 proxy proxy 166 Aug 19 07:11 polipo.log.8.gz root@homebrew:/var/log/polipo# ---- Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I should do to stop the error message being produced every day? In case it needs to be said: this problem did not exist when I was running wheezy, and I haven't changed anything in the default installation related to logrotate or polipo. I am a bit puzzled as to why no one else seems to have reported this problem. Googling has not helped suggest the cause or the correct fix. Doc -- Web: http://www.sff.net/people/N7DR
