rsyslogd and services in general
Ok, old school here, Saturday morning hacking. What is the new method
for managing system services? Could someone point me to some good
documentation? The reason I ask is nothing is being written to
/var/log/messages and /etc/init.d/ doesn't seem to be a viable option
anymore. I tried:
/sbin/service rsyslog status
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status rsyslog.service
rsyslog.service - System Logging Service
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service; enabled)
Active: active (running) since Sat, 02 Mar 2013 09:50:50 -0500; 24min ago
Main PID: 2584 (rsyslogd)
CGroup: name=systemd:/system/rsyslog.service
└ 2584 /sbin/rsyslogd -n -c 5
Looks good but logger "test";ls -lt /var/log/messages shows:
-rw-------. 1 root root 0 Feb 24 10:48 /var/log/messages
I must be missing something. TIA.
