Firewall logs not working

Hi there,

I am currently trying to set up logging for outgoing HTTP connections but I cannot seem to get any logs to be output into the logs.

In the UI, in my VMs firewall configuration I have log_level_in and log_level_out both set to info but when I click on Firewall > Log, after creating some network interactions from and to the VM, the logs still say "no content."

I have also tried settings logs to info at the datacenter and host level but to not avail.

Is anyone else having/had this problem and could suggest some ways I could approach fixing this?

Thanks folks
 
Is Firewall trully enabled? There a few places to enable Firewall, they might as well, all need to be ticked?
 
Yep, I've got firewall rules actively blocking and accepting connections and I can confirm they are working correctly.
 
Please post the output of pveversion -v
 
Here's the output @mira:
