Hi Herman,

You must follow the instructions at https://www.kamailio.org/wiki/tutorials/3.2.x/syslog

Anyway check:

* In case Kamailio is not running as root then the user as enough privileges to write in the log file.

* How do you have 'log_stderror' in your kamailio config file?.

Regards,

1)
/etc/rsyslog.d/kamailio.cfg exists with the entry:
log_facility=LOG_LOCAL0

2)
/etc/rsyslog.con has the entry:
#
# don't log messages with LOG_LOCAL0 in /var/log/syslog anymore
*.*;auth,authpriv.none,local0.none              -/var/log/syslog

#
# log messages with LOG_LOCAL0 in /var/log/kamailio.log
local0.*                        -/var/log/kamailio.log
#

 local0.*                        -/var/log/kamailio/kamailio/kamailio.log

Alternatively I edited /etc/rsyslog.d/kamailio.conf that should be used by rsylog.conf

3)
/etc/rsyslog.d/kamailio.conf exists with the entry:
local0.*                        -/var/log/kamailio/kamailio.log


I am working with ubuntu on an amazon instance.


Why is the logfile empty?

Thanks Herman
