Gnome Logs Crashes or Unable to Read System Logs

#1 Post by bcinteractive »

Hi,

Just installed Debian 10 using the Gnome Desktop.

How do I troubleshoot Gnome-Logs. This just doesn't work but I need it to monitor logs.

What I did so far:
1. Enable my user as sudo user
2. run sudo gnome-logs and got some messge "No protocol specified Unable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused"
3. run just gnome-logs warning ** Error retrieving the sender timestamps: Cannot assign requested address
Segmentation fault

4. Add my user to group systemd-journal

Thanks

Just use journalctl. I have no idea why gnome even has a separate program to read the journal.

Code: Select all

man journalctl
