Hello TISman and TISwoman,

We appreciate the use of logrotate in the wapt server, however, there is a modification to be made.

In the wapt-server logrotate file (https://github.com/tranquilit/WAPT/blob ... -logrotate), line 7 should be changed:

`/etc/init.d/waptserver restart > /dev/null`

to

`/etc/init.d/waptserver restart &> /dev/null`.


Otherwise, we get a CRON email with the restart output:

`/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:

This could be unnecessary logging.
If necessary, I'm happy to submit a pull request, and you can merge it.

See you soon.

/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
