[SOLVED] Log file error

[Valtam]

I'm a bit confused that such a fundamental issue has not been fixed before the release!? With this issue obviously even the provided Log File Viewer is not working.

Linux Lite is aimed at new people to linux. I doubt they even know this file exists, let alone read it. The simple fix is:

Code:

sudo chown syslog:adm /var/log/syslog

Code:

sudo chmod 640 /var/log/syslog

Code:

sudo service rsyslog restart

You can try the same for auth.log

We shouldn't have to intervene here, this is something the base OS should have taken care of.
