If you're not seeing any log output at all, then either:

1. Postgres is logging to postmaster's stderr but you've directed same
to /dev/null (or not where you are looking, anyway).

2. Postgres is logging to syslog, but you've configured syslog to
discard the output (or put it somewhere else than where you are
looking).
