0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart PoetteringYou are looking for the traditional text log files in @VARLOGDIR@, and
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart PoetteringHere's an explanation on what's going on:
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart PoetteringYou are running a systemd-based OS where traditional syslog has been
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart Poetteringreplaced with the Journal. The journal stores the same (and more)
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart Poetteringinformation as classic syslog. To make use of the journal and access
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart Poetteringthe collected log data simply invoke "journalctl", which will output
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart Poetteringthe logs in the identical text-based format the syslog files in
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart Poettering@VARLOGDIR@ used to be. For further details, please refer to
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart PoetteringAlternatively, consider installing one of the traditional syslog
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart Poetteringimplementations available for your distribution, which will generate
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart Poetteringthe classic log files for you. Syslog implementations such as
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart Poetteringsyslog-ng or rsyslog may be installed side-by-side with the journal
0ce8860a15fb08ac358fb9c5347bd20c0bcdebcdLennart Poetteringand will continue to function the way they always did.
