jefferbrecht opened a new issue, #5261: URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/5261
## Description On older versions (i.e. 3.3.3) couchdb would write to `/var/log/couchdb/couchdb.log` by default. As of 3.4.x this no longer appears to be the case. This is specific to RHEL 8 (I can't repro this on other Linux distros). ## Steps to Reproduce ``` [jefferbrecht@couchdb2 ~]$ cat install sudo yum install -y yum-utils sudo yum-config-manager --add-repo https://couchdb.apache.org/repo/couchdb.repo sudo yum install -y couchdb cat << EOF > local.ini [couchdb] [couch_peruser] [chttpd] [httpd] [chttpd_auth] [ssl] [vhosts] [admins] admin = otelp EOF sudo mv local.ini /opt/couchdb/etc/local.ini sudo chown couchdb:couchdb /opt/couchdb/etc/local.ini sudo chmod 0755 /opt/couchdb/etc/local.ini sudo systemctl enable couchdb sudo systemctl restart couchdb [jefferbrecht@couchdb2 ~]$ sudo bash install ...<truncated>...
