Greetings - I am in the ISPConfig 3.04's control panel. I am unable to access the - System Messages - Log. Here is the message I get when I click on it: When I go to '/var/log' -- there is no file or directory named 'messages'. -- Q: What needs to be done so that the system can log? Thanks in advance, Dennis
Hi I think this is simple if you are using Ubuntu (may be the same for other distros) - if you look in /var/log there will likely not be a "messages" log. This is because logging has been "grouped" together to go in a single log on some distros. All you need to do is to split logging into different files again. In ubuntu edit the file /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf and uncomment the mail and messages logs then restart rsyslog: vi /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf /etc/init.d/rsyslog restart
