What's the date/time stamp on the one error log? As Kurt said, and from
what I read online, files are only generated when there's output for that
log. I think 2.4.10 has a -c option to generate a file even if there's no
output.
Your directory list shows that there are error logs with the date stamp,
are those not the result of rotatelogs?
