Log Settings


 

The log settings define what types of information is logged. The log files are all stored within the logs sub-directory where RealChat was installed.

Logging options

The logging options are all self-explanatory. You can optionally log when users enter and exit the chat server, log public messages, log private messages, and log messages in user created rooms.

When logging messages, please make sure to respect your user's privacy. If you are logging private messages, you should make your users aware that the chat may be monitored and recorded.

Log file rotation

This setting determines how often new log files will be created. The available options are Daily, Monthly, and when specific size limits are reached of either 10MB or 50MB.

Your choice of log rotation frequency will be based largely on the amount of traffic your website receives as well as the amount of logging you do.
