udpb-cod admin bot. Some advice?

[Vye Wilson]

I have been working on getting the udpb-cod admin bot working and I'm 
having a bit of trouble. I got to the part where I test my configuration 
and I got this:
[code]
root at Naruto udpb-cod # ./testpackage.py -v
TEST PACKAGE FOR UDPB-COD VERSION 1.1.1
(run with -v for more verbose output)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Parse config and verify that the bot can write to the specified logfile 
... FAIL
Config file 'udpb-cod.cfg' exists and is readable ... ok
Parse config and verify that game's logfile is readable ... ok
Parse config for rcon information and attempt to connect to CoD server 
... ok

======================================================================
FAIL: Parse config and verify that the bot can write to the specified 
logfile

I don't really understand why this is happening since I'm running 
everything as root (is that wise?)
Here is my configuration file so you can give me some advice on why this 
is happening that would be nice:

[game_server]
; ip -- the address that the call of duty server is listening on
; port -- the port that the call of duty server is listening on
; rcon_password -- the rcon password to perform remote operations on the 
CoD server
; main_dir -- absolute path to the main folder of call of duty (the 
folder is actually called "main")
;ip=68.7.245.143
ip=192.168.7.103
port=28960
rcon_password=*********
main_dir=/root/.callofduty/main


[log_files]
; **NOTE** These paths should be absolute (start with a / on linux)
; game_logfile -- location of CoD's log (usually in the user who runs 
the server's home dir)
; bot_logfile -- where you want the bot to keep its own logfile
; log_level -- this can be 10,20,30,40, or 50. 10 will log the most,
;               50 will only log critical errors. Do not set lower than 20
;               unless you need to debug
game_logfile=/root/.callofduty/main/games_mp.log
bot_logfile=/opt/cod/udpb-cod.log
log_level=20


[files]
; **NOTE** These paths can be absolute or relative to the bot's directory
; banfile -- file to store ban information in (in udpb's directory)
; regfile -- file to store server regulars (for auto-kick protection)
; adminfile -- file to store admin information in (in udpb's directory)
; eightballfile -- file to store eightball responses
; current_players_file -- this is an XML file listing all current 
players (enable_xml_summary must be set to 1 to turn this on)
