After installing sysstat package and running sar command I encountered the error message: “Cannot open /var/log/sysstat/sa18: No such file or directory. Please check if data collecting is enabled”

Fix
Open and edit /etc/default/sysstat config file and change row from ENABLED=”false” to ENABLED=”true”

sudo service sysstat restart
