Warning: fopen(C:\wamp64\www\xxxx\wp-temp\xxxx\logs\log_2018-05-14.txt): failed to open stream: File exists in C:\wamp64\www\xxxx\wp-content\plugins\xxxx\vendor\katzgrau\klogger\src\Logger.php on line 167

This is run through the earlier class and is attempting to open with an 'a' attribute.

Sorry, can not provide access.. I can say this is on a Windows platform and that I created the directory with

	if (!is_dir($log_dir)) {
		$oldmask = umask(0);
		mkdir($log_dir,0777, true);
		umask($oldmask);
		chmod($log_dir, 0777);
	}

Also the log is in a parent directory.
