Issue #20173 has been updated by eric sorenson.
Eddie--can you clarify why the Splunk integrations require a puppet.conf setting rather than a command line option? ---------------------------------------- Feature #20173: Logdest cannot be set in the puppet.conf https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20173#change-101045 * Author: Celia Cottle * Status: Investigating * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Charlie Sharpsteen * Category: logging * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: * Keywords: customer * Branch: ---------------------------------------- This is potentially a duplicate issue of a few things floating around out there, but most focus on masterlog, so I'm opening this up separately. Currently you can use --logdest /var/log/somelogfile, but you cannot set it in the puppet.conf. This seems like an oversight, especially since there seems to be a good number of people who wish to keep all puppet logs out of /var/log/messages. There are ways around this (etc/init.d/pe-puppet), but they are purely workarounds. It looks like some of the reason for this is the old masterlog option, which it seems is no longer in use, used to be the preferred way of setting in the puppet.conf.
