Syslog problem

    Please, how can I get debug log in a cvs image ? If I telnet 'syslogd' I get only following 2 lines in /var/log/messages:-


    May 21 12:58:10 dreambox syslog.info syslogd started: BusyBox v1.01 (2006.04.15-10:26+0000)


    May 21 12:58:36 dreambox auth.info login[93]: root login on `pts/1'



    Regards, PCD.

    So, why no syslog appearing in /var/log/messages ? :confused_face:

    because enigma does not output to syslog :winking_face:


    Try dmesg for a kernel log and if you want to see enigma output, you'll have to redirect it (enigma > /tmp/enigmalog)

    Please, how exactly do this 'redirect' ?

    exactly as i wrote:


    killall rcS
    killall enigma
    enigma > /tmp/enigma.log


    then you'll find enigma output in this file. As an alternative you can start enigma normally and you'll see it's output directly on the console

    I did that, but nothing appears in /tmp/enigma.log


    I am using a cvs 56x0 image. Does your instruction apply to a 56x0 image ?
