Problem with internal logger

I'm receiving these cron emails about what I'm guessing is clamav not able to update the freshclam.log file: /etc/cron.daily/logrotate: [Sun Sep 27 04:22:04 2015] [warn] NameVirtualHost *:443 has no VirtualHosts ERROR: Problem with internal logger (UpdateLogFile = /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log). When I look in /var/log the folder clamav doesn't even exist. Anyone have a suggestion on how to solve this?

  edit your /etc/logrotate.conf and remove the /var/log/clamav/freshclam.log entry

  Well that, or you can just create that location, its owned by 'clam' which is why it cannot create itself.
  mkdir /var/log/clamav ; chown clam: /var/log/clamav

  Thanks! I created the folder but the user that was needed was clamav.
