Devstack log file configuration

 

Hi,

I am new to openstack and trying to use devstack to launch an openstack compute node on my machine.

The nova was installed and started successfully. However, I could not get the logging part work:

What I am expecting to see: as a consumer service should be started by bin/nova-compute program (part of the stack.sh work), the
log should have information such as: "Creating Consumer connection for Service XXX"


What I did:
As stack user:

Try to configure the nova.conf file under the directory:
/opt/stack/nova/etc/nova/ with:
debug=true
verbose=true
logfile_mode=0644
logging_default_format_string=%(asctime)s.%(msecs)03d %(process)d %(levelname)s %(name)s [-] %(instance)s%(message)s
logging_debug_format_suffix=%(funcName)s %(pathname)s:%(lineno)d
instance_format="[instance: %(uuid)s] "
instance_uuid_format="[instance: %(uuid)s] "
log_format=%(asctime)s %(levelname)8s [%(name)s] %(message)s
log_file="/home/stack/devstack/log/stack.log"
use_syslog=false


If my understanding was the /etc/nova/nova.conf file is updated according to the above setting?
But I can not find the following:
log_file="/home/stack/devstack/log/stack.log"

I could not find any log file under any of the directories:

/home/stack/devstack/log/stack.log
/opt/stack/

Can not find any files similar to /var/log/nova.log

Can not find any log information about nova starting the consumer service.


I must get something wrong, please point it out for me.



Thanks in advance,


Donglai
