Log Files

NuoDB generates log files for various NuoDB executables and services. Most of the time, you can ignore these log files, but sometimes it is useful to check a log file to resolve problems. NuoDB provides the following log files:

NuoDB Admin log
Event log
Audit log
SQL connections log
Engine stop log
Crash directory

By default, NuoDB places log files in the following locations:

Platform Directory

Platform	Directory
Linux Tar/Local Installations	`$NUODB_HOME/var/log`
Windows	`%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\nuodb`
RPM installations/NuoDB Container	`/var/log/nuodb`

Linux Tar/Local Installations

$NUODB_HOME/var/log

Windows

%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\nuodb

RPM installations/NuoDB Container

/var/log/nuodb

When deploying NuoDB in non-containerized environments, the location of log files is the same as for the RPM setup. Use exec to access the Admin container or pod to view the log files.

Since each platform has specific ways to generate log files, the names of NuoDB log files tend to be platform specific as described in the topic for each type of log file.
