Thanks Mathieu. So, it is not possible to set this at build time by passing a parameter to the configure script... IMHO, a symbolic link is not a good idea in production environments. BR Pablo On Tue, Feb 17, 2009 at 1:05 PM, Mathieu Rene <mrene_lists@avgs.ca> wrote:

You can specify those as runtime argument.

$ ./freeswitch -h these are the optional arguments you can pass to freeswitch -nf -- no forking -u [user] -- specify user to switch to -g [group] -- specify group to switch to -help -- this message -core -- dump cores -hp -- enable high priority settings -vg -- run under valgrind -nosql -- disable internal sql scoreboard -stop -- stop freeswitch -nc -- do not output to a console and background -c -- output to a console and stay in the foreground -conf [confdir] -- specify an alternate config dir -log [logdir] -- specify an alternate log dir -db [dbdir] -- specify an alternate db dir -mod [moddir] -- specify an alternate mod dir -htdocs [htdocsdir] -- specify an alternate htdocs dir -scripts [scriptsdir] -- specify an alternate scripts dir

But in my opinion, you should keep all files at the same place and make a symbolic link if you really want stuf to be accessible from /var/log

Hi Michael, Thank you very much for your help. It meets my needs. I was thinking in something like: ./configure --prefix=/opt/freeswitch --localstatedir=/var/log/freeswitch But I can get same results changing the default configuration of conf/autoload_configs/logfile.conf.xml and conf/autoload_configs/xml_cdr.conf.xml.

You can also specify these in the config files. You can put the logs and/or CDR files wherever you'd like. If you open up conf/autoload_configs/logfile.conf.xml you'll see that there is a line commented out - this line will let you choose the default log file path. In fact, I think you'll approve of the location already specified on that line. :)
