Logcheck failed with: Details: Could not run logtail or save output Check temporary directory: /tmp/logcheck.urOJdC Also verify that the logcheck user can read all files referenced in /usr/local/etc/logcheck/logcheck.logfiles! This is a misleading message. Logcheck could read those files. It appears that the problem was with logtail2: /usr/local/sbin/logtail2 /var/log/messages This failed with: cannot compile /usr/local/share/logcheck/detectrotate/10-savelog.dtr: Permission denied Fix: chown this directory to logcheck solved the problem. Next thing was a complaint about messages.offset. After chowning that and auth.log.offset to logcheck, logcheck worked again.
