buildbot start master/slave fails the first time because twistd.log does not exist

[thomasvs]

In writing the tutorial, I found that this is the case only on first time.

I need to run:

  touch $VIRTUAL_ENV/master/twistd.log
  buildbot start $VIRTUAL_ENV/slave
  tail -f $VIRTUAL_ENV/slave/twistd.log

Without the touch line the startup fails.

I believe that twistd.log is written by a class defined in the Twisted framework. What version of Twisted are you using?
