hi Keifer,some options:tor is not running as the default instance (This is what Matt allready said in his mail, for example because you use something like ansible rules to set it up), you could try using:sudo journalctl -eu tor*on debian the logging from tor is in some cases put in /var/log/syslog (this depends on how you have installed tor, again, if you used ansible rules to setup tor this could be the case). So if you edit this file you can find the relevant tor line items. There are lots of other options to look at syslog, simple way to start could be:cd /var/logmore syslog | grep Tor(this shows only line items from syslog that contain 'Tor' in it)orsudo more syslog | grep Tor(depends on the account you are using)gr.

are using the `default` tor instance,
journalctl -eu tor@default
-e to jump to the end
-u to specify the unit, tor@default
Logs end up here by default because
/usr/share/tor/tor-service-defaults-torrc has `Log notice syslog`. I
think (but don't know for sure) adding a `Log` line in your torrc would
override this, since this appears in the defaults torrc.
