Description Timmothy Wilson 2015-03-02 09:38:10 UTC
Dear IPFire-Team,

since February 26, I am running IPFire on a Wandboard Quad, my fireinfo profile is available here: http://fireinfo.ipfire.org/profile/5b2bd7f27142f30ab9a173bf09e68d2dc8c68068

I installed the core update on friday, so my system now uses the stable version of IPFire.

Today i noticed that all firewall logs, expect those from march 1st and 2nd were gone. The WebIF just displays: "Für den gesuchten Tag existiert kein (oder nur ein unvollständiges) Log: /var/log/messages.1 konnte nicht geöffnet werden"

This is a critical error, since it may destroy attack attempts.

Thx,
Timmothy Wilson

This is a known bug.
create /etc/logrotate.d with mkdir.
