Do you use persistent logging (i.e. do you have a /var/log/journal directory) or do you use volatile logging? What are the permissions of of the journal directory and the files therein (either /var/log/journal or /run/log/journal)? What is the output of systemctl status systemd-journald.service systemd-journald.socket Is the systemd-journald process still running? Can you strace it and trigger a log message via "logger". -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
