Error mounting /var/log?

Question

linux

I created two logical partitions /var and /var/log
And mounted them like this:
mount /dev/sda5 /var
mount /dev/sda6 /var/log
The /var partition was mounted fine
But the /var/log partition gave the following message:
mount : mount point /var/log does not exist
What did I do wrong please tell me ?

Answer 1

when the system is installed, the var section is filled - standard directories are created in it, installed packages create the directories and files they need there ...
You mount an empty section in var. Do you think that the content will appear there automatically?
At least create the /var/log directory before mounting, or something
