We saw something similar in our logs after doing a FC1 > FC2 upgrade.
To see what's actually failing, manually run:
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate
..and look for error messages.
In our case the problem was that the logrotate conf script was trying to
rotate /var/log/ppp/connect-errors , which didn't exist.
Doing:
touch /var/log/ppp/connect-errors
..fixed it.
