Given the inequality:
$$\log{\left(x^{2} + 2 x + 2 \right)} < 0$$
To solve this inequality, we must first solve the corresponding equation:
$$\log{\left(x^{2} + 2 x + 2 \right)} = 0$$
Solve:
$$x_{1} = -1$$
$$x_{1} = -1$$
This roots
$$x_{1} = -1$$
is the points with change the sign of the inequality expression.
First define with the sign to the leftmost point:
$$x_{0} < x_{1}$$
For example, let's take the point
$$x_{0} = x_{1} - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$-1 - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$- \frac{11}{10}$$
substitute to the expression
$$\log{\left(x^{2} + 2 x + 2 \right)} < 0$$
$$\log{\left(2 \left(- \frac{11}{10}\right) + \left(- \frac{11}{10}\right)^{2} + 2 \right)} < 0$$

but
/101\
log|---| > 0
\100/
Then
$$x < -1$$
no execute
the solution of our inequality is:
$$x > -1$$
