In addition to the file-based log, Cerberus also displays the current log output to the graphical user interface while the server is running. If using a relative log file path, the path is relative to the C:\ProgramData\Cerberus LLC\Cerberus FTP Server folder. For the DailyRollingFileAppender you will just need to change the File parameter associated with the logger. For the default RollingFileAppender logger with a FixedWindowRollingPolicy you will need to change both the activeFileName and fileNamePattern parameters in the log4j.xml file. You can change the location and name of the file created under the various log appenders using the appropriate field. The below logfile example shows a simple daily rollover logger. Įxample Daily Rollover log4j.xml Configuration File The below logfile example shows a Syslog logger. Possible values for the tag’s level parameter are:Įxample Syslog log4j.xml Configuration File There is also a separate log file for logging only errors. These types of loggers are limited to at most 13 saved log files. The following example log4j.xml file contains a size-based log appender that rolls over after the log file reaches a certain maximum size, and that limits the number of log files that are kept. You can have a size-based log appender, a daily rolling log appender, or a Syslog appender. The basic component of the logging package is the log appender. You can also have a combination of these different logging methods. Change the number of log files kept for size-based logging.Change the default size of log files for size-based logging.

Log File LocationĬerberus FTP Server logging is implemented through the Apache Log4cxx framework, a robust logging package modeled after the popular log4j Java logging package. File-based logging can be managed through an XML configuration file that can control nearly all aspects of how log data is written to a file. The server also stores a longer history of logs on the file system. The onscreen log will display the most recent log output from Cerberus FTP Server in near real-time. Note: Our log4cxx version does not support TCP syslogs.Īdministrators can quickly view the current log output from the Cerberus UI, or through web administration, by looking at the Log page. Cerberus FTP Server provides comprehensive logging of all file and user operations and provides both on-screen logging, file logging, and Syslog support.
