[Unbound-users] Unbound Log Verbosity

[u***@fongaboo.com]

I raised verbosity to 5 and reloaded. Confirmed:

| /etc/unbound # unbound-control status
| version: 1.4.20
| verbosity: 5
| threads: 4
| modules: 2 [ validator iterator ]
| uptime: 600 seconds
| unbound (pid 66544) is running...

Shouldn't I be able to see individual queries?

Hi Fongaboo,

| /etc/unbound # unbound-control status | version: 1.4.20 |
verbosity: 5 | threads: 4 | modules: 2 [ validator iterator ] |
uptime: 600 seconds | unbound (pid 66544) is running...
Shouldn't I be able to see individual queries?

Yes, it logs every query in detail, and with query source. Where is
unbound logging to? Syslog or a log file? The last statement in
unbound.conf determines which one (use syslog yes or use log-file
filename). You could try to use a logfile, because perhaps the syslog
connection fails and unbound cannot log at all (because syslog is
thwarted by chroot or permissions perhaps). Unbound needs to be able
to (re)open the log-file (as file permissions), so the logfile, and
perhaps directory, has to allow those permissions. When you kill -HUP
unbound it attempts to re-open the logfile with its (downlevelled)
user permissions - this is for log file rotation - but if it does not
have permission it cannot log.

Best regards, Wouter

Thank you.

Strangely, I found no entries in unbound.conf related to logging other
than the verbosity.

I tried adding...

syslog: yes
log-queries: yes


...but when I run unbound-checkconf, I got:

/var/unbound/unbound.conf:8: error: unknown keyword 'syslog'
/var/unbound/unbound.conf:8: error: stray ':'
/var/unbound/unbound.conf:8: error: unknown keyword 'yes'
read /var/unbound/unbound.conf failed: 3 errors in configuration file

Nevermind. The option is actually 'use-syslog: yes'.

Working now...

Hi Fongaboo,

It is use-syslog: yes, not syslog: yes.

Best regards,
Wouter
