[rancid] blank log files on initial install

[Scott Granados]

Wow I saw no mention of that in the doc.  I will give this a try.  I think I may have a “ missing in my config as well after coming back to this with some sleep this morning.

I will give both a try and thank you much for the pointer.

I had the same problem when I first upgraded to 3.1 and it took me far too long to find that you need to use a semicolon instead of a colon (a little RTFM and some hair pulling helped) and I experienced the same problem you describe.

Admittedly my previous attempt has been using yum or apt-get to install rancid 2.3.6 but this time I downloaded the source and compiled.  There were no errors during compilation.

However, if I run the clog in command with a router name it logs in fine and drops me in to the network element.  What should I check to diagnose the lack of configs being pulled and the totally empty logs other than the words start and end.  Any pointers would be most appreciated.
