Public bug reported:
Since 9 Oct 2017 that subdir is unreadable and empty.
oem@ubuntu:~$ ls -la /var/log/gdm3
ls: cannot open directory '/var/log/gdm3': Permission denied
oem@ubuntu:~$ sudo ls -la /var/log/gdm3
[sudo] password for oem:
total 8
drwx--x--x 2 root gdm 4096 Oct 9 19:50 .
drwxrwxr-x 11 root syslog 4096 Mar 15 05:23 ..
So i have updated the rights:
sudo chmod +rx /var/log/gdm3/
and then get:
oem@ubuntu:~$ sudo ls -la /var/log/gdm3/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root gdm 4096 Oct 9 19:50 .
drwxrwxr-x 11 root syslog 4096 Mar 15 05:23 ..
But rebooting set back to: 'drwx--x--x 2 root gdm' and so cant register
logfile again.
