Conference recording errors on file creation

When recording a conference if the directory structure is not already present it will error on recording:

[12:36:44|2012-06-12] WARNING[25297] file.c: Unable to open file /var/spool/asterisk/monitor/2012/06/12/conf-2897-2897-20120612-123642-1339519002.179349.WAV: No such file or directory

Asterisk has come back saying that it is not a bug at their end:

Matt Jordan commented on ASTERISK-19986:

As far as I'm aware, there is no provision that states that MeetMe?
- or any application in Asterisk
- will create a full directory structure for you unless that directory structure is already managed by the application.

Since the directory structure you've specified above is not managed by MeetMe?, this does not seem to be a problem with the application so much as how you've configured it.
