Re: Fedora 20 no /var/log/messages file
Actually rsyslog is what I needed. Enabled and started it and rebooted
and now I see messages and mailog.
I don't remember having to do that in F19, but maybe I made slightly
different installation choices.
Thanks

What does "systemctl status syslog" say?
If you want syslog, you need to enable it.
Otherwise, the new way is to use the journalctl command.
