I see what you mean, now. If I clear that file of it's contents it no longer gives an error when I restart Exim but if there are any lines in there at all it does. I think I'll just live with clearing it out every once in a while (when I make bad changes to Exim's config) instead of trying the logrotate fix, that way I won't end up with alot of empty (or near empty) files.
