title: How to get syslog file in Redhat
body: <p>I have installed collectd on my Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.2 server.</p>
  <p>I have also installed it on ubuntu 14.04 server.</p>
  <p>In ubuntu when I run the service collectd and face any error , I can easily go to <code>/var/log/syslog</code> to get the error message and reason.</p>
  <p>But when I get error message on my Red Hat server like this :</p>
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/BEAkH.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/BEAkH.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>
  <p>and I go to <code>/var/log</code> I did not get the file syslog.</p>
  <p>As I don't have much/no experience with Red Hat , can some body tell me where to find syslog file in Red Hat server in order to trouble shoot my errors.</p>
  <p>Thank you.</p>
