Title: Getting daily cron error emails
Post by: Chris on December 12, 2003, 01:03:37 AM

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

error: error accessing /va/rlog/snort: No such file or directory
error: snort:4 glob failed for /va/rlog/snort/*/*log

I've search the forum and couldnt find anyone else with this same error? Is there a file i need to edit or change? Any ideas would be great thanks!

There is a problem with the path. It should be /var/log/snort/...

I dont know where you would have to fix it though, maybe in the snort config file?

I have the same problem - anyone find where to fix the path yet?

You'll find that line in /etc/logrotate.conf. Looks like the author of the snort contrib you're using made an error.

FYI - I found and fixed the offending line in /etc/logrotate.d/snort

Thanks Michiel, your post pointed me in the right direction!
