My logs are empty. I know its a permission/writes issue but can't get
to the bottom of it. The problem seems to have cropped up after
switching application pools and services from using the default
installed accounts over to one I've created to service application
pools and services. Having made the switch by "registering" the
account in SP Central Admin and then using the Credential Management
to select the service and assign the account.
Even so, after configuring everything to use an account other than the
installed default, I am now left with log files that get created and
left empty and a warning message that remains about using a built in
account for the SPTraceV4 service.
My log directory has the following accounts and permissions:
Creator Owner - Special (inherited)
System - Full (inherited)
Local Service - Read & Write (assigned) Special (inherited)
WSS_Admin_WPG - Modify and below (inherited)
WSS_Restricted_WPG_V4 - Read & Write (assigned) Special (inherited)
WSS_WPG - Read & Write (assigned) Special (inherited)
spservice account - Modify and below (assigned)
Administrators - Full (inherited)
Users - Read Exec, List folder, Read (inherited)
TrustedInstaller - List folder & Special (inherited)
The three WSS groups contain the following memberships:
Admin - spfarmaccount
Restricted - spfarmaccount
WPG - spfarmaccount, spserviceaccount, spmysitesappaccount
Where did I go wrong?
