| = Logging in FileZilla =
| |
| FileZilla includes two ways of logging all communication with the server, which essentially consists of commands sent by the client and server replies.
| |
| The following chapters will shortly explain, what you'll need to do if you're asked to 'Please post a log'.
| |
|
| |
|
| == File log ==
| |
| Since version 3.2.0-rc1, FileZilla includes the possibility of logging to a file. Contrary to screen log, file log is not enabled by default.
| |
|
| |
| === What is logged ===
| |
| * Timestamp: data and time<br>
| |
| * FileZilla process ID<br>
| |
| * Connection ID, browsing connection is 0<br>
| |
| * Log text: Commands sent, status messages and more
| |
|
| |
| === Setting up file log ===
| |
| Just enable 'Log to file' in FileZilla's settings, Logging tab and select a path and filename for the log. You can select the path freely, but you must use a directory where you have write permission.
| |
|
| |
| === Limiting the log size ===
| |
| On the same tab, enable 'Limit size of logfile' and enter the desired value in Mebibyte (MiB). One MebiByte equals 1048576 Bytes.<br>
| |
| Please note that FileZilla makes one backup, so the amount you enter here is doubled!
| |
|
| |
| If the log file reaches the size limit, FileZilla renames it to <filename>.1, and starts a new file. Any <filename>.1 file that exists prior to renaming will be deleted.
