Hi,ãI am getting along nicely with my system setup. One thing that is troubling me is that I don't seem to be getting any logs for the bbs in the syslog.ãI have the syslog level set to 3 and have it logging to the syslog /var/log/sbbs.log file.ãFor the time being I am running the bbs manually with sudo /sbbs/exec/sbbs.ãIf I want to see any log messages I have to run it in console mode instead of using the daemon option.ãUsing Ubuntu Linux for this install.ããWhat is the best way for me to figure out where I am going wrong here?ããThanks,ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Cw Shack telnet kf4yey.comã

That won't be very many messages logged, if any at all. A normal syslog level would be 6 (INFO) or 7 (DEBUG).ãã > For the time being I am running the bbs manually with sudo /sbbs/exec/sbbs.ã > If I want to see any log messages I have to run it in console mode insteadã > of using the daemon option.ã > Using Ubuntu Linux for this install.ã >ã > What is the best way for me to figure out where I am going wrong here?ããIt's best to run sbbs on Ubuntu Linux using systemd, not "manually with sudo". See the install/systemd/sbbs.service file for instructions.ããOnce running sbbs in that manner, you'd use 'journalctl -u sbbs' to read/search the log output. To see the log output in real time, you'd use 'journalctl -f -u sbbs'.ã-- ã digital man (rob)ããThis Is Spinal Tap quote #12:ãNigel Tufnel: Well, I don't know - wh-wh-... what're the hours?ãNorco, CA WX: 65.2øF, 36.0% humidity, 3 mph ESE wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrsã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã
