Daily postgresql cron error log file

Question

I am getting these emails daily:

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
error: error accessing /var/log/postgresql: No such file or directory
error: postgresql-common:1 glob failed for /var/log/postgresql/.log
error: found error in /var/log/postgresql/.log , skipping

I don't use postgresql database therefore guessing postgresql is not installed at all by default, wondered what is the most appropriate method for this, find a way to stop these messages or have postgresql installed? Although I don't believe I will be using it as I hardly know what it is. I use MySQL.

Server: Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS

Any opinions on the method to take?

Answer 1

Look in the folder /etc/logrotate.d/there are some file for the logrotation. I think there is a logrotate file for postgres. I think you can delete that file. Otherwise check the other files if you can find some other rules.
