I have ejabberd 15.09 from the Testing repository running on the Debian 8.2 "Jessie" (Stable) server.

Since upgrade from ejabberd from the Stable the logging to /var/log/ejabberd/ejabberd.log seems broken. User activity is not logged even when loglevel is set to 5 (debug).

Here is my /etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.yml:

With the loglevel set to 4 all I got in the /var/log/ejabberd/ejabberd.log is:

Is there any hidden dependency to be satisfied (some erlang-* package) to get logging work back? What else may I check?

Well, my suspicions were right, some erlang package should be upgraded to the version from the Testing repository. I've upgraded all my installed erlang-* packages and logging started to work. Not sure which one was responsible for logging, but I believe to upgrade them all is essentially a good idea. Here is the command:

sudo apt-get install -t testing erlang-p1-stringprep erlang-p1-yaml erlang-p1-pgsql erlang-p1-iconv erlang-p1-stun erlang-proper erlang-p1-utils erlang-p1-cache-tab erlang-p1-mysql erlang-goldrush erlang-p1-sip erlang-p1-xml erlang-jiffy erlang-p1-zlib erlang-lager erlang-xmlrpc erlang-p1-pam
