Empty boot.log and dmesg.log files

Looking at /var/log/boot.log and dmesg.log I find that both logs are empty.
This is also reported when using the SME Server Manager > View Log Files command.
Is there an option to turn on boot logging?
Thanks

dmesg is not a normal log.

You can view the latest contents by simply typing
Code:
[Select]
dmesg
If you want to view boot logs then look in /var/log/messages - they should be in there.
I think the /var/log/boot.log is an anachronism and looks like it was deprecated.
You can read the various links/bugs here:
https://forums.centos.org/viewtopic.php?t=17313
The references should probably be removed.
