Hi,
For testing, I changed the conjob for logwatch from to "03 0 * * * " but tonight 'logwatch' did it again:
"No (or only partial) logs exist for the day queried: /var/log/logwatch/2019-03-31 could not be opened."
So it took some time, but the bug still exists.
Any suggestions? I think, I should open a bug report...
Best, Matthias

Hi,
I do not think that you have two reports in the larger file.
In the cronjob line the file is being overwritten (>) and not appended (>>).
I see.
Is it possible that this conflicts with the logrotate job that is launched at the same time and logwatch tries to read files that are being rotated away?
This was my first suspicion. After changing the start time of the 'logwatch'-job the error did not occur again until now. I'll wait and watch.
Best, Matthias

Is this a ticking issue where one log has two days’ data and the other is empty?
[Correction: Of course I meant '.../2019-01-26' ;-) ]
Looking an it - could be the case. The log created on 2019-01-28 is significantly bigger:
***SNIP*** ... -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 43698 Jan 24 00:01 2019-01-23 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 56469 Jan 25 00:01 2019-01-24 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 57936 Jan 26 00:01 2019-01-25 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 27 00:01 2019-01-26 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 114650 Jan 28 00:01 2019-01-27 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 40121 Jan 29 00:01 2019-01-28 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 38220 Jan 30 00:01 2019-01-29 ... ***SNAP***
But what can I do about this? For now, I changed running time to "03 0 * * *".
