    I started OpenVPN manually inside the container. The server is actually running but I can see no logs (/var/log/syslog is missing) inside the container. Commented Feb 21, 2016 at 10:56
  • As I say, that's expected behaviour. Commented Feb 21, 2016 at 12:56
  • Make sure you're not passing --daemon or --log, and you should see all log messages immediately in the terminal. Commented Feb 21, 2016 at 13:00
  • I run the container with the --detach and the --tty parameters and I was expecting the logs to go to their default location /var/log/syslog inside the container. Commented Feb 21, 2016 at 16:36

    I've tried to use the syslog driver, but still no error messages are logged to the host's syslog when they usually are logged by the server running on the host machine. Anyways thanks for your assistance. Commented Feb 27, 2016 at 11:05
