[SOLVED] zmlogswatchctl is not running

[DougR]

I apologize if this is a repost but I've searched the forums and have not found an answer.

I recently(last night) updated Zimbra to 7.0 and moved the installation to a new server.

ZCS NE 6.0.10 on Ubuntu 8.04 64 -> ZCS NE 7.0.0 on Ubuntu 8.04 64 -> ZCS NE 7.0.0 on Ubuntu 10.04 64 was my transition.

Mail is coming and going fine but the logger service doesn't seem to be working. Here's what I get when I start Zimbra

zimbra@mail:~$ zmcontrol start
Host mail.myzimbra.net
	Starting ldap...Done.
	Starting zmconfigd...Done.
	Starting logger...Done.

	stats                   Running
	zmconfigd               Running

When I check /opt/zimbra/log/zmlogswatch.out I see

Error opening /var/log/zimbra-stats.log: No such file or directory at /opt/zimbra/data/tmp/.swatch_script.13361 line 92

When moving to the new hardware I used this guide. Moving ZCS to Another Server » Zimbra :: Blog

Thanks in advance!

Run the following:

touch /var/log/zimbra-stats.log
chown zimbra:zimbra  /var/log/zimbra-stats.log

Then restart Zimbra.

Thanks! That worked great for getting the logging service going! However it still doesn't seem to be logging properly and when I log into the admin interface it shows all of the services as down despite them being up.

I have the same issue with a clean install of zcs 7.0 on a cent os 64 bit machine.

I contacted Zimbra support to get some help on getting this going.

What they ended up having me do is install rsyslog and run /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmsyslogsetup. This fixed the issue for me.
