Var/log/messages file are empty

[antonio montagnani]

I checked all files in var/log and in particular I found these files are 0 
bytes.

How is it possible??

Tnx

Are you running F15?

Try systemctl restart syslog.target .  There was a bug in F15 that
caused this.  I can't remember the fix, though.  You might try
systemctl enable syslog.service .
