Ok, well why can't it edit that file? Do you have a permissions problem?
comment:4 Changed 10 months ago by intecpsp@…
That file isn't even there. I don't have a "Logs" folder at all.

Right, so you need to figure out why that is... How are your ~/Library permissions?

Did you figure out the problem? I'd like to fix this in the next release. Does ~/Library/Logs exist? Does ~/Library/Logs/X11 exist? What are their permissions? If they don't exist, try creating them. Maybe it's a problem with the server creating those directories.
