Public bug reported: Hi, I tried to view the logs in my system because of a crash, but just happened to notice that /var/log/messages* was not updated for more than a month !!! So, I am unable to get more information about the crash.
Could you please help me in finding out and fixing the problem with the logs not getting updated? $ date Thu Mar 5 01:40:23 IST 2009 $ ls -ltr /var/log/messages* -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 32314 2008-12-18 18:33 /var/log/messages.3.gz -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 90580 2009-01-06 15:01 /var/log/messages.2.gz -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 41201 2009-01-13 15:33 /var/log/messages.1.gz -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 295311 2009-01-20 01:05 /var/log/messages.0 -rw-r----- 1 syslog adm 149591 2009-01-23 00:22 /var/log/messages Thanks a lot in advance... ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- ubuntu /var/log/messages not getting updated https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/337908 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
