[CHANGE REQUEST] missing /var/log/spooler - logrotate error - proposed solution

Daily cron is rotating logs. I have this error

logrotate: ALERT - exited abnormally.

I got an email with message:

error: stat of /var/log/spooler failed: No such file or directory

After research, similar problem was with redhat:

https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1319273


Proposed solution:

add missingok flag in /etc/logrotate.d/syslog
