Question

journalctl command shows no logs

Posted November 7, 2019 1.2k views

Recently, I deployed a django project using this tutorial.

When I use sudo journalctl -u gunicorn to check gunicorn logs I always get “No entries”. This happens even when the application has errors.

usr@ubuntu:~/api$ sudo journalctl -u gunicorn
[sudo] password for user: 
-- No entries --

I tried the same the other day and got no idea why it wouldn’t work, but what I did manage to find was the logs are in /var/logs/ and then you have access to read all of them and I recall seeing one in there for gunicorn.

Sorry wish I could be a little more accurate but don’t have my terminal open at moment, but i hope this helps.

    In addition to this issue, commands like systemctl status nginx doesn’t show any logs (at the bottom). It looks like a systemd bug.

    Yes, I can see logs in /var/logs/ but journalctl is a little bit more handy.

    Ironically, on all my other droplets both commands are working fine.
