The discrete logarithm can be quickly computed in a few special cases. But, in general, there is no known way to efficiently compute it in general. Interestingly enough, we haven't been able to prove that an efficient solution \textit{doesn't} exist. The best we can offer is a \say{proof by effort:} many smart people have been trying for long time and haven't solved it yet. It probably doesn't exist.
