Should be in /var/log/boot or dmesg.  I can't remember if stretch uses
systemd, but if it does, you'll likely need some invocation of
journalctl (but I don't have a system to verify a quick google search,
so don't want to lead too far astray)

have an entry in /etc/fstab to load the swap.

    UUID=[THE_UUID]  none  swap sw  0 0

or with your /dev/sda5

    /dev/sda5  none  swap  0  0
