You are looking for the traditional text log files in @VARLOGDIR@, and
|
|
they are gone?
|
|
|
|
Here's an explanation on what's going on:
|
|
|
|
You are running a systemd-based OS where traditional syslog has been
|
|
replaced with the Journal. The journal stores the same (and more)
|
|
information as classic syslog. To make use of the journal and access
|
|
the collected log data simply invoke "journalctl", which will output
|
|
the logs in the identical text-based format the syslog files in
|
|
@VARLOGDIR@ used to be. For further details, please refer to
|
|
journalctl(1).
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, consider installing one of the traditional syslog
|
|
implementations available for your distribution, which will generate
|
|
the classic log files for you. Syslog implementations such as
|
|
syslog-ng or rsyslog may be installed side-by-side with the journal
|
|
and will continue to function the way they always did.
|
|
|
|
Thank you!
