Viewing the Server Log

For troubleshooting – for example in case of problems with the mail integration or after an update – you can view the DOCTAG server log directly on the server. The following commands are available for this purpose:

  1. Live view of the current log output

    The following command shows the log stream in real time. New entries are displayed immediately as they are recorded. Exit the view with Ctrl + C.

    journalctl -u docsrv.service -f
  2. Displaying older log entries

    To trace past events, you can display the last n entries. The following example shows the last 1000 entries:

    journalctl -u docsrv.service -n 1000

    Adjust the number 1000 as needed to display more or fewer entries.
