Hi, I have an fc15 box and I'm having a problem with logwatch. I'm using bzip2 for the compresscmd for logrotate, yet it somehow is giving the compressed files a gz instead of bz2 extension. Logwatch uses this to determine which command to use to read the compressed files, so it therefore is using the wrong command. However, the files seem to be begin rotated. I hoped someone could help clarify what's going on. I have the following in /etc/logrotate.conf: # uncomment this if you want your log files compressed compresscmd /usr/bin/bzip2 compress Here's a list of the freshclam files that are being compressed and rotated: # ls -l /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log* -rw-rw---- 1 clamupdate amavis 6775 Oct 21 17:47 /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log -rw-rw---- 1 clamupdate amavis 939 Oct 11 23:47 /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log-20121012.gz -rw-rw---- 1 clamupdate amavis 916 Oct 12 23:46 /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log-20121013.gz -rw-rw---- 1 clamupdate amavis 855 Oct 13 23:46 /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log-20121014.gz Running 'file' on the compressed files says they are bzip2 files. Here's the contents of the error message I receive from logwatch in an email every day from cron.daily: /etc/cron.daily/0logwatch: gzip: /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log-20121019.gz: not in gzip format system 'zcat '/var/log/clamav/freshclam.log-20121019.gz' >> /var/cache/logwatch/logwatch.zOSnHbtE/clam-update-archive' failed: 256 at /etc/cron.daily/0logwatch line 764. Why are the files being compressed and named with the wrong extension?
