Yah, don't use it..

Clear the log from the command line. Otherwise, you have to give the web user permissions to the directory and you may have to set the sticky bit on the directory so your poller can write to it as well.

Not the correct answer of course. You web user needs rw to the directory and the file in case it's already created. Then, if you continue to have problems it will be due to stuck processes. Of course the latter would lead me to additional questions.
