[cod] udpb-cod admin bot. Some advice?

[Maverick]

Looks like a permissions problem.  The bot can't write to the log you 
pointed it to (bot_logfile=/opt/cod/udpb-cod.log ) for it's own log.  
Either you don't have write permission in /opt or /opt/cod or there's 
already a udpb-cod.log and you don't have write permission on it, or 
it's in use by someone else.
