[Maria-discuss] question about generating logs on MariaDB 10.1.21

Hello, I have just moved from a MySQL 5.6 server on CentOS 6.8 to a MariaDB 10.1.21 server on CentOS 7. It is installed and working. I would like to set up some logging, but it has not gone as expected. I have binary logging working. However, I can't generate general logs or error logs. Here is part of the /etc/my.cnf file: user=mysql port = 3306 socket = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock datadir = /mnt/mysqldbs log_error = /var/log/mysql/error.log general_log_file = /var/log/mysql/mysql.log general_log = 1 log_bin = /mnt/mysqldbs/logs/mysql-bin I assume that after a restart, the logs will be generated, then logged to as events happen. As it is, no log files are generated. Many thanks.
