OPEN
This is open, and cannot be resolved with a finite computation.
Let $1\leq n_1<n_2<\cdots$ be an arbitrary sequence of integers, each with an associated residue class $a_i\pmod{n_i}$. Let $A$ be the set of integers $n$ such that for every $i$ either $n<n_i$ or $n\not\equiv a_i\pmod{n_i}$. Must the logarithmic density of $A$ exist?
This is a special case of
[486].
