Logfiles

Accessing log-files from the pandorabox main-server

NOTE: This is reserved for moderators/staff only (feel free to submit your public-key if it isn't installed yet)

SSH Access

The log-files can be accessed via ssh:

# open ssh connection with "readonly" user
ssh readonly@pandorabox.io
# change to logs-directory
cd /data/pandorabox.io/data/minetest/

The log-files are in a rotation and get gzipped periodically (depending on size/elapsed time)

debug.txt is always the current logfile, for example:
