DNSCrypt-Proxy Logs not recording

In DNSCrypt-Proxy my query log and nx log do not record any information. Note: They did in past versions.

In the " /usr/local/etc/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.toml " file:

They are shown to be in the " /var/log/dnscrypt-proxy " directory.

The log files are not there. And only the dnscrypt-proxy.log is there and records information.

I created both the " query.log " and " nx.log " files in this directory.

Then stopped and started dnscrypt-proxy service and nothing changed.

Looking in the dnscrypt-proxy.toml file, I see that the log files have these attributes:

log_file = '/var/log/dnscrypt-proxy/dnscrypt-proxy.log'

[query_log]
  file = '/var/log/dnscrypt-proxy/query.log'
  format = 'tsv'

[nx_log]
  file = '/var/log/dnscrypt-proxy/nx.log'
  format = 'tsv'

[whitelist]
  whitelist_file = 'whitelist.txt'
  log_file = '/var/log/dnscrypt-proxy/whitelisted.log'
  log_format = 'tsv'

[blacklist]
  blacklist_file = 'blacklist.txt'
  log_file = '/var/log/dnscrypt-proxy/blocked.log'
  log_format = 'tsv'

Under [query_log] & [nx.log]
should " file = " be " log_file = "
should " format = " be " log_format = "

Also when ever I save this file and then stop and restart the DNSCrypt-Proxy service the file reverts to the original version.

I would appreciate any advice that can be given. Thanks




Are you sure it's wrong or did it fix the problem creating the files?

The dnscrypt.toml.sample also use different formats, I just copied them from the sample.
