Is there a way to view logs older than what we can see in the gateway log view?
You might have more logs in the wrapper.log
files, in $gatewayInstallLocation/logs
- by default, they're sequentially named "rolling" files, so wrapper.log
has the newest events, and wrapper.log.5
has the oldest events.
Whether this will actually have a longer duration is impossible to know, however. The wrapper.log files are kept to ~10mB for 5 rolling files. The gateway logs are kept to ~50,000 events, truncated every minute. The exact timestamp is fluid because different types of logged messages (and especially, their associated stacktrace) will consume different amounts of space.
Thank you, I was able to locate those files, unfortunately they contain the same info as what is in the gateway so I can't go back further. Thank you for pointing me to the right place.
The duration, rollover size, and number to keep is configurable in ignition.conf.
Where under Config do I change the settings for logs?
It's not in the gateway web interface. It is a config file in the install folder. Restart the gateway after changing it.
Thanks, I don't see anything like that, see photo:
It'll be easier to see if you turn on display of file extensions. (I really despise Windows for that kind of BS.)
It's a file called ignition.conf in the install directory.
