maillog is gone !!!

Unread post by nobody »

Ok something really okward has happened.
I hadn't checked maillog for some time now.
Suddenly in both plesk servers the /var/log/maillog and the rotated ones such as maillog.1 .2 .3 .4 are completely null !!!!!
In both boxes ! Can you check if your servers still have maillog ?

What could have gone wrong ? I haven't updated plesk. So its definately something else going wrong.

I dont believe Plesk uses those files. Plesk logs mail in /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog.

[root@foo ~]# ls -al /var/log/maillog*
-rw------- 1 root root 0 Jun 5 04:18 /var/log/maillog

[root@foo ~]# ls -al /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog
-rw-r----- 1 root root 4142171 Jun 10 12:58 /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog
