Logfile in case of systemd service

[zmata]

Hi, what is logfile in case of MBUSD systemd service?
Is it posible to specify it in conf file?
Thanks

By default:

/var/log/mbus.log

This is staticly defined in the log.h file.

mbusd/src/log.h

Lines 42 to 43 in 8f2ccf1

	#define LOGPATH "/var/log/"
	#define LOGNAME "mbus.log"

Currently its not possible to set it in the configuration file.

What you can do though is change the ExecStart= line in the systemd

mbusd/systemd-units/mbusd@.service.in

Line 6 in 8f2ccf1

ExecStart=@CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_BINDIR@/mbusd -d -v2 -L - -c @CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_SYSCONFDIR@/mbusd/mbusd-%i.conf -p /dev/%i

ExecStart=@CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_BINDIR@/mbusd -d -v2 -L - -c @CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_SYSCONFDIR@/mbusd/mbusd-%i.conf -p /dev/%i

change the -L - to the directory and file that you would like the log file to be:

E.g.

ExecStart=@CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_BINDIR@/mbusd -d -v2 -L /var/log/mbusd/mbusd.log -c @CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_SYSCONFDIR@/mbusd/mbusd-%i.conf -p /dev/%i

Hi, I've already changed -L - to -L /var/log/mbusd/%i before creating my deb package.
Thanks
