Was trying to enable log for chroot users
May have done sth. wrong ,find ls -l in /var/log most log files size stay 0.
Try to fix it followed this answer
# systemctl restart systemd-journald.socket
# systemctl start rsyslogd
Failed to start rsyslogd.service: Unit rsyslogd.service not found.
# logger -s "hellow"
logger: socket /dev/log: No such file or directory
# sudo rsyslogd -N6 | head -10
sudo: unable to resolve host iZ26v45oj3yjtmZ
rsyslogd: version 8.16.0, config validation run (level 6), master config /etc/rsyslog.conf
rsyslogd: command 'KLogPermitNonKernelFacility' is currently not permitted - did you already set it via a RainerScript command (v6+ config)? [v8.16.0 try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2222 ]
# ls /dev/log
ls: cannot access '/dev/log': No such file or directory
And checked syslogd is running
#lsof -f -p 5379
syslogd 5379 root 16w REG 253,1 0 1844521 /var/log/news/news.err
