Thanks Jochen. It looks like root is trying to start my graylog-server. When I delete the server.log and then try to start the graylog-server, the server.log file comes back owned by root:root.
So I deleted the server.log again, made sure the graylog-server and graylog-web were stopped, "su graylog", and tried to start the graylog-server and got: *$ start graylog-serverstart: Rejected send message, 1 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.6" (uid=1001 pid=4001 comm="start graylog-server ") interface="com.ubuntu.Upstart0_6.Job" member="Start" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="com.ubuntu.Upstart" (uid=0 pid=1 comm="/sbin/init ")* Suggestions?
