Cause

The root-cause is a duplicate log paths defined across the logrotate files. This is usually caused by files with .bak , .rpmsave, or other similar extensions in the /etc/logrotate.d directory, as the logrotated service loads all files in the folder.

Resolution

1. Login as the root user via SSH, or using the Terminal in WHM.

2. List all files in the /etc/logrotate.d folder:

   # ls -alh /etc/logrotate.d

3. Remove any files that end with .bak, .rpmsave, etc. For example:

   # mv -v /etc/logrotate.d/imunify-core.rpmsave /root
