Cron.daily sends me a logrotate Kill usage message.
 
Hi There,
I'm running Red Hat Linux 7.3
I receive the following message in the root's email.

Subject: Cron <root@LinuxDev> run-parts /etc/cron.daily

Message:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

usage: kill [ -s signal | -p ] [ -a ] pid ...
kill -l [ signal ]
usage: kill [ -s signal | -p ] [ -a ] pid ...
kill -l [ signal ]

My logrotate.conf file looks normal (see below)
This started after I restored the system from tape so it may be a permission problem. Although everything else seems to be running normally.

Any Ideas on what could cause this error?

David

Listing of /etc/logrotate.conf
