Scribe Scribe v3.2.11 /UIScribe v1.4.13 not showing WLCEVENTD.log Entries - Reinstalled no Success

[killweav]

Not sure when this started exactly bc I don't check logs on the daily. The last successful log entry in WLCEVENTD rotate file was Mar 26, 2026. I do see associated hostapd and dnsmasq entries in the messages log but nothing fills up in wlceventd.log file. I've reinstalled/rebooted w/no success. Other logs populate just not wlceventd.log.

I ran checks in scribe via amtm and they all appear normal. I produced a debug file but don't understand it fully. Log level is set to 6. Here's an output of what I see:

When I cat the log rotate for wlceventd it shows last entry March 26th.

Disk check for external storage shows CLEAN.

UIScribe states that the file is empty or does not yet exist.

I removed the 0 byte file and restarted scribe to see if it would re-create it and it does not re-create the wlceventd.log file.

I can see that the symlink in /jffs is working:

lrwxrwxrwx    1 killweav root            21 Apr 10 14:36 syslog.log -> /opt/var/log/messages
-rw-rw-rw-    1 killweav root            24 Apr 10 14:36 syslog.log-1

I'm at a loss here. Thanks for any/all help offered.

Check how whether you have the SIGHUP right. It used to be that scribe wrote individual configuration files for each log, which ended with a postrotate command to restart syslog-ng. If logrotate rotated a log file, it would create a new empty log file, but syslog-ng would still be looking for an old node. Thus the need to restart syslog-ng to reset the node.

That changed in December, when the SIGHUP was moved to a new A01global file, which ends with the postrotate command:

# THIS DIRECTIVE MUST BE LAST #
postrotate
    /usr/bin/killall -HUP syslog-ng
endscript

#EOF#

It may be in the course of reinstalling your logrotate.d files weren't updated, or updated incosnsistently.
