Thanks! I went to /etc/httpd/logs and found that there were indeed
only two of the log files set to rotate in /etc/logrotate.d/apache. I
commented out the portion of the script that rotates the non-existant
log files.
Now, I guess we'll see if I still get any email about the offending
logs.
Thanks a bunch!
