Lew told you in his post. It is the same file where it has been for decades: /var/log/messages
ran "locate messages" and there is no file in /var/log/ or anywhere that looks like it is related to the os. All related to some application file or other. --doug

Good point, what version of Leap are you running, Doug? If you're not sure you can "cat /etc/os-release". As someone else pointed out, the system is not Leap, it's Tumbleweed.
Ah, I missed that. Some older releases of openSUSE didn't run syslog by default, which would explain why /var/log/messages was missing. Leap 15.2 does run it by default, I don't know about Tumbleweed. journalctl should be there in any case.
Can you try "journalctl | |grep -i panic" as root and see what happens?
locate does not find cournalctl
You don't need to "locate" journalctl, it's a program that lives in /usr/bin.
You should find it by doing "which journalctl", or just typing "journalctl", assuming your paths are set correctly.
