Hi,

This happened to my dedi when I first got it... hopefully the info below will help you solve it:

1. logwatch gets its info from various log files, usually in /var/log. You need to make sure that "syslogd" is running for those logs to get filled up... so restart the service with this command:

/etc/init.d/syslog restart

2. Check the size of your log files with this command

ls -l /var/log/messages*

It can take a few hours to fill them up.

3. Also check
that the service manager in your whm ( under Service Configuration ) is set to restart syslogd if it fails.

Hope this helps.

Regards
Jonathan
