Firestarter 1.0.3-10 failed to....
Recently installed Firestarter to 11.04. Firestarter reports error on startup: Failed to open the system log
No event information will be available.
I read on launchpad... [ https:/
When installing (or upgrading) to 11.04 syslogd is upgraded to rsyslog. This uses the file /etc/rsyslog.conf which references the file configuration /etc/rsyslog.
You can edit this file and change the lines commented out that create the relevant logfile
#*.=info;
# auth,authpriv.
# cron,daemon.none;\
# mail,news.none -/var/log/messages
to
*.=info;
and then restart rsyslog or reboot
Note: As rsyslog is referencing the directory /etc/rsyslog.d/ you could just put a new file in that location that would be included in the configuration so as not to fall foul of an ubuntu upgrade at a later date. The choice is yours.
**I would like to perform above operation...put a "new file in that location that would be included in the config....I am new to Ubuntu, how would I perform operation above? Is this something i edit in my source files?
