    One of the central problems in convex geometric analysis is the logarithmic Minkowski problem. It asks: what are the necessary and sufficient conditions for a finite Borel measure on the unit sphere so that it is the cone-volume measure of a convex body? \textit{K. Böröczky jun.} et al. [J. Am. Math. Soc. 26, No. 3, 831--852 (2013; Zbl 1272.52012)] solved this problem for even measures. The author of the present paper solves the problem for discrete measures whose supports are in general position.
