If I go to
/admin/taillog-FTL.php
I don not see anything. The other log, /admin/taillog.php
works well.
On the server disk, /etc/pihole/pihole-FTL.log
is NOT empty
Debug Log: x6pru79z3m
Why this log is empty? Must I enable the log as documented in the following link?
Debugging FTLDNS - Pi-hole documentation
Thats easy its a live tail.
Tailing starts when you browse to that link and you will only see new log entries appear.
Older log entries from before browsing to that link wont show.

I was thinking that FTL was logging requests and anme resolutions like the standard logger does.

FTL is intentionally logging into two files for historic reasons:
/var/log/pihole.log
- DNS/DHCP related logs
/var/log/pihole-FTL.log
- statistics daemon related logs
The fact that you don't see anything in the tail
log of pihole-FTL.log
is a good thing.
