How to get puppetserver to log again after it stopped logging

today i noticed that my puppetserver version 2.7.2 on debian stretch doesn't log to /var/log/puppetlabs/puppetserver/puppetserver.log and /var/log/puppetlabs/puppetserver/puppetserver-access.log anymore :(

i had no idea why. even restarting the service did not help.

tried /etc/init.d/puppetserver restart & service puppetserver restart with the same result of not having new log entries.

the solution for me was to first start and then stop the puppetmaster:

puppetserver stop
puppetserver start
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
