I also couldn't reproduce this bug. In a bionic VM, I installed iptraf-ng 1:1.1.4-6: root@ubuntu:/var/log/iptraf# apt-cache policy iptraf-ng iptraf-ng: Installed: 1:1.1.4-6 Candidate: 1:1.1.4-6 Version table: *** 1:1.1.4-6 500 500 http://br.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status root@ubuntu:/var/log/iptraf#
I created /var/log/iptraf, entered the UI, enabled logging in the config. When starting the monitor, it prompted me for the log file, where I had to correct the log directory (from iptraf-ng to iptraf), but after that, it ran just fine and produced the logfile I indicated: # ll /var/log/iptraf/ total 12 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 9 20:40 ./ drwxrwxr-x 9 root syslog 4096 Jul 9 20:39 ../ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 360 Jul 9 20:40 andreas.log I agree that the log directory not being created is a bug. It's even mentioned in the shipped logrotate file: root@ubuntu:/var/log/iptraf# cat /etc/logrotate.d/iptraf-ng # Logrotate file for iptraf /var/log/iptraf/*.log { compress delaycompress missingok notifempty rotate 4 create 0600 root root } Did you check if your crash produced a crash file in /var/crash? If yes, please upload it to this bug, so we can take a look at the core dump file.
