No root-cause found and therefore continued with the 'minimized' /var/log with fingers-crossed.
After almost 2 years must revisit this topic, because again the subject raspberry on strike. Via PuttySSH tried the same remedy as hinted then, but to no effect. Changed path to /var/log/ CLI: sudo rm daemon.log.1 Translated reporting is: rm: cannot remove ''daemon.log.1' Filing system is read-only As remedy tried to change the attributes of files by issue of sudo chmod 775 *.* at several levels, but resulting report is same: Filing system is read-only Weird, because with WinScp and ls -l the attributes for all log-files show as rwxrwsr-x Any ide what has happened, and how to remedy?
