Fix permission denied error from logrotate. #183

Closed georgpad-zz closed 6 years ago

georgpad-zz commented 6 years ago

When tried to logrotate the log I've got a permission denied error:

# logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.d/lshell 
error: error opening /var/log/lshell/user1.log: Permission denied
# ls -l /var/log/lshell/user1.log 
-rw------- 1 user1 sysadmins1 85 Nov 10 10:26 user1.log
~# id user1
uid=1017(user1) gid=1112(sysadmins1) groups=1112(sysadmins1),3(sys),4(adm),33(www-data),120(lshell)

To solve permissions over logrotate, we have to use root instead of nobody user.
