All of the logs are in one directory now that we've moved to log4j2. Marking as fixed.

We should do this. We make directories for rrds, reports, etc. if they don't exist, so if the directory doesn't exist we should create it.

But this may be non-trivial, so I'll change the priority to "enhancement". It is a day one issue, before the logs breakout, so I can't really complain much, can i?

Patient: "Doctor, it hurts when I do this ..."
Doctor: "Then stop doing it ..."

We've never created any of the log directories automatically--they were
always done as part of the build process. Now that there are
sub-directories for each of the parts of OpenNMS that run in a separate
JVM, you should either delete the contents of an individual
sub-directory of $OPENNMS_HOME/logs or if you delete all of
$OPENNMS_HOME/logs, you'll need to recreate the individual log
directories manually (and correct the permissions of the webapp logs
directory, if Tomcat is running as a non-root user.).

In other words: don't "rm -rf $OPENNMS_HOME/logs/*". If you want
to whack a bunch of logs, go after a specific subdirectory, or at least
do something like "rm -rf $OPENNMS_HOME/logs//.log*".
