    We recently moved our dispatcher and render clients into Linux environments(centos 5), but none of the render clients writes logs into specified folder, why? is it not available in linux?
    we’ve specified all the settings we can find as following:

    dispatcher.conf:
    rc_log_cmdline = 1
    rc_log_retcode = 1
    renderclient_log_format = %job_name%.%job_id%.%chunk_id%.%hostname%.%timestamp%.txt

    rc.conf:
    log_folder = /var/log/muster
    log_folder_share = \%*hostname*%muster_logs

    Any help will be appreciated!

    Check the renderclient.log file. At the beginning of each packet, there’s always a path dumped with the full file pathname of the log.

    Do you mean that I can find the full pathname of packets’ log files in the file “renderclient.log”?
    but I can’t find any logs’ path infomation from the my renderclient.log,
    I’m just confused what does the following settings do:
    ############################
    dispatcher.conf:
    rc_log_cmdline = 1
    rc_log_retcode = 1
    renderclient_log_format = %job_name%.%job_id%.%chunk_id%.%hostname%.%timestamp%.txt

    rc.conf:
    log_folder = /var/log/muster
    log_folder_share = \%*hostname*%muster_logs
    ############################

    the following is my renderclient.log:

    You’re writing inside /var/log/muster. Be sure that the account that’s starting the renderclient is able to write into that folder or redirect the logs in another folder.

    Regards.

    Leonardo.

    I updated it to 5.2, and the problem disappeared automatically…
    Thanks a lot for your reply!
