Use Logs And Chat Logs

Logs are the fastest way to find out why a deployment or restart failed.

Open Logs

From instance Actions menu:

  • View Server Logs for service/runtime output
  • View Chat Logs for player chat history

Action reference: Instance Actions Menu

Server Logs: Practical Usage

  • Start with Last 500 lines.
  • If needed, switch to a time range (for example last 1 hour).
  • Press Apply.
  • Use Ctrl+F inside the log viewer.

Chat Logs: Practical Usage

  • Keep chat.log selected for current activity.
  • Select rotated files (chat.log.1, etc.) for older history.
  • Start with 500 lines and adjust.

What To Do When You See Errors

  1. Copy the exact error line.
  2. Retry once (restart or re-save config).
  3. If same error repeats, escalate with the copied line and instance name.
