--no-log option

[Ben Diamant]

Hey,
I still can’t make it work, I don’t have a physical access to the machine so I can’t access the Linux command menu as expected in the tutorial.
Any other way I can add the –no-log for the init run?

Thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben,

If you read init(8), you'll see that if you run init as a root user (without specifying '--user'), init will re-exec itself and run *telinit*. If you then read telinit(8) or run 'telinit --help' you'll see that it has no '--no-log' option.

Further, you cannot run a second instance of init anyway. To do what you want, you need to add '--no-log' to the kernel command-line set by your bootloader and used by PID 1. An example of how you can do this temporarily is shown in the Cookbook:

http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#add-verbose-or-debug-to-the-kernel-command-line

If you want to make such a change permanent and you are running Debian or Ubuntu, modify GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub and then run 'sudo update-grub'.

Hey,
I want upstart processes to stop logging to /var/log/upstart/
But the no log option does not work, I’m on Ubuntu 12.04.

What’s wrong?
