Yes, this is the quickest solution. Even though it would be nice to find out
why the original permissions didn't work.

(Permissions were given to group 'databases', which contained
groups 'mysql.service' and 'postgres.service', each of which contained
the appropriate users.. And those users weren't able to access
the files..
so I'm suspecting that groups aren't "recursive", but then 
what is the point of allowing groups to be members of other groups
in the first place?)

Well, you could just do 'touch LOGFILE && work || echo no work'... 
Seems the most elegant thing to do given the way how the log
file is written..
