Hi Folks,
Have run into an odd problem with my server refusing to create an ET log file. Some info:
Server is running RedHat Linux 9.
Perms are set properly for the directory where I want to write log files.
Have the following in my server.cfg file:
set g_log “etserver.log”
set g_logsync 0
set logfile 3
I am running the Shrub mod (v1.3).
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thx in advance.

Figured out what was going on–the server was writing stats–just was placing them in the user directory it was running as, in the folder .etwolf
The odd thing is, when I gave it a path, it was appending that path on to:
/home/etserver/.etwolf/etmain
so that if I said “/local/logs/etserver.log”, the path under which it was saved was:
/home/etserver/.etwolf/etmain/local/logs/etserver.log
So, I “fixed” the problem by creating a symbolic link from /home/…/etmain -> /local/logs and now the file gets saved to where I want it. Kind of a pain in the ass, actually. lol
So, if you’re running into this issue, there ya go.
