Hello!
I want to have dovecot log into a separate file and set log_path = /var/log/dovecot instead of log_path = syslog
Dovecot does not start if I do this. Tried to change permissions and overschip of the file, no luck, ha. Deleted it in the hope dovecot creates it but no.
If I set log_path = syslog dovecot starts and I see it is running as
# ps aux |grep dove root 2429 0.2 0.0 3416 2568 ? Ss 16:42 0:00 /usr/sbin/dovecot -F dovecot 2431 0.0 0.0 3100 2080 ? S 16:42 0:00 dovecot/anvil root 2432 0.0 0.0 3228 2316 ? S 16:42 0:00 dovecot/log root 2434 0.0 0.0 4220 3300 ? S 16:42 0:00 dovecot/config
What must be done to have dovecot log into the specified file?
Greetings
Andreas
