Changing the log file directory 2007/09/15 06:30  
Hi,

Is it possible in usermin to select the name and directory of the logfile? Same thing for webmin.

Thanks

What log are you talking about?

The miniserv.log and miniserv.err files. I would like them to stand into the /var/log instead of their own directory.

There are options for this in miniserv.conf, though I don't see where they're set in Webmin. The relevant options are:

logfile=/var/webmin/miniserv.log
errorlog=/var/webmin/miniserv.error


It's probably also in the GUI somewhere, but maybe not...it's something I've never needed to do in 8+ years of using Webmin, and having a hard time imagining why you'd need to do it. ;-)

Just because I find it more convenient to have all logs at the same place instead of trying to remember where is the log file of one particular software ^^
