Log Files

Console's log files are located in the following directories:

OS Version Path
Linux
  • Console: /opt/aspera/console/log/
  • asctl: /opt/aspera/common/asctl/asctl.log
  • MySQL: /opt/aspera/common/mysql/data/mysqld.log
  • Apache: /opt/aspera/common/apache/logs/

In Console's Apache HTTP server logs directory, you will find the following files:

  • access_log
  • error_log
  • ssl_access_log
  • ssl_error_log
  • ssl_request_log
Important: All Apache logs are, by default, rotated by size (defaulting to 10MB files and only retaining the last 10 rotated logs).

httpd_template_linux.conf

/opt/aspera/common/apache/conf/httpd_template_linux.conf
  • ErrorLog "|${log_path}bin/asrotatelogs ${log_path}logs/error_log 10M 10"
  • CustomLog "|${log_path}bin/asrotatelogs ${log_path}logs/access_log 10M 10" common

httpd-ssl_template.conf

/opt/aspera/common/apache/conf/extra/httpd-ssl_template.conf
  • ErrorLog "|${log_path}bin/asrotatelogs ${log_path}logs/ssl_error_log 10M 10"
  • TransferLog "|${log_path}bin/asrotatelogs ${log_path}logs/ssl_access_log 10M 10"
  • CustomLog "|${log_path}bin/asrotatelogs ${log_path}logs/ssl_request_log 10M 10" "%t %h %{SSL_PROTOCOL}x %{SSL_CIPHER}x \"%r\" %b"

You can further configure Console's Apache log settings by running the following commands in a Terminal:

Setting Command
Specify an Apache log level (for example, error level)
$ asctl apache:log_level error
Enable Apache log (set to notice)
$ asctl apache:enable_logs
Disable Apache log (set to emerg level)
$ asctl apache:disable_logs
