Guest.log file is not written into /var/log/libvirt/qemu/Guest.log but remains in Home Directory/.cache/libvirt/qemu/log/Guest.log. Does anyone know why its not writing to the required log location.
That _is_ the desired default location for qemu:///session, and can be further tuned by setting appropriate values for XDG_CONFIG_DIR (defaulting to $HOME/.config) and contents of $XDG_CONFIG_DIR/libvirt/libvirtd.conf (set the log_outputs config variable). Only qemu:///system (for privileged users) has permissions to write into /var/log.
Thanks a lot Eric for the information.
