May be stating the obvious, but can you try 'touch
/storage/log/postgresql/postgresql-Tue.log" as postgres to see it it
works. Also, doing the ls -al on /storage/log/postgresql, in case it
has a previous read only file for Tue, and may be even a lsattr on the
paths ( listing the fs type will be useful too, maybe Fedora is using
some extended thingies ).
