User story

As a server owner I wish to have rustcarbon installed and still view logs on disk

Game

Rust

Linux distro

Ubuntu 22.04

Command

command: start

Further information

Whenever I install "rustcarbon" using mods-install and then start the server, I stop getting log entries to log/console/rustserver-console.log.

cat log/console/rustserver-console.log

The above command returns an empty log.
Also applies to Debian, 9, 10, 11 and Ubuntu 20.04 and centos, Rocky

When manually setting the -logfile in rustserver.cfg via startparameters, it works.

Relevant log output

No response

Steps to reproduce

No response

The logs output come from the tmux session output. In other words whatever the game server outputs gets logged. It is likely that Carbon itself is preventing the server from outputting the logs.

Add -logfile ${consolelog} to your start parameters

-logfile ${gamelog} is the current default. I will close this issue as logs are working as intended by the game server and/or mod
