Hi Ben, If you read init(8), you'll see that if you run init as a root user (without specifying '--user'), init will re-exec itself and run *telinit*. If you then read telinit(8) or run 'telinit --help' you'll see that it has no '--no-log' option.
Further, you cannot run a second instance of init anyway. To do what you want, you need to add '--no-log' to the kernel command-line set by your bootloader and used by PID 1. An example of how you can do this temporarily is shown in the Cookbook: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook/#add-verbose-or-debug-to-the-kernel-command-line If you want to make such a change permanent and you are running Debian or Ubuntu, modify GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub and then run 'sudo update-grub'. 2014-05-15 16:34 GMT+01:00 Ben Diamant <[email protected]>: > Hey, > > I want upstart processes to stop logging to /var/log/upstart/ > > But the no log option does not work, I’m on Ubuntu 12.04. > > > > > > What’s wrong? > > -- > upstart-devel mailing list > [email protected] > Modify settings or unsubscribe at: > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/upstart-devel > > Kind regards, James. -- James Hunt ____________________________________ #upstart on freenode http://upstart.ubuntu.com/cookbook https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/upstart-devel
