Hi folks

Newbie to the list; relative newbie to spacewalk (although I've used both the 
'proper' RHN and Oracle versions for some time as an end-user). Not in any way 
a newbie to RH-derived Linux distros :)

I've recently installed Spacewalk 2.8 - 2.8.2-1.el7.centos to be precise - on 
each of a dev and production system. Both of them spit an error from logrotate 
each night:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

error: Ignoring osa-dispatcher because of bad file mode - must be 0644 or 0444.
error: skipping "/var/log/cobbler/cobbler.log" because parent directory has 
insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not 
"root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group 
should be used for rotation.
error: skipping "/var/log/cobbler/tasks/*.log" because parent directory has 
insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not 
"root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group 
should be used for rotation.
error: skipping "/var/log/cobbler/install.log" because parent directory has 
insecure permissions (It's world writable or writable by group which is not 
"root") Set "su" directive in config file to tell logrotate which user/group 
should be used for rotation.

Obviously I can fix these by tweaking the permissions on the directories and 
files, but as they've been set by the installer/rpm/post-install scriplets I'd 
prefer to find out if (a) there's a fix in the pipeline or (b) I should just 
change the perms to quiet the error.

Regards

Graeme
