Description Thomas Beutin 2016-03-30 16:08:28 UTC

the cronjob produces a mail every hour:

touch: cannot touch '/var/lib/log/backupninja.log': No such file or directory

The same happens when i run this manually:

# /usr/sbin/backupninja
touch: cannot touch '/var/lib/log/backupninja.log': No such file or directory

Comment 1 Thomas Beutin 2016-03-30 16:11:35 UTC

The reason for this is the (at least) uncommon logfile location in /var/lib/log/ which does not exists by default.
