[cobalt-users] Maillog fails to rotate



Hi,

Every day our RAQ3 gives this error emailed to admin during the cron.daily:

errors occured while rotating /var/log/maillog

error running prerotate script --
                                leaving old log in place

It started on July 6th and Cobalt have been spouting their usual "we won't support this as you must've changed the scripts and voided your warranty as our servers are perfect etc etc" - something we are getting rather fed up of hearing from their support team.

Has anyone else had the same problem - with the maillog rotating error, not Cobalt support :o) - and does anyone know how to fix it without Cobalt's usual suggestion of an OS restore CD job! :(

Thanks and Regards,

James.
