How Do I Find My WordPress Server Log?

In order to troubleshoot WordPress issues, it is important to have access to the server’s logs. This can be accomplished by using a log monitoring tool, such as the WordPress Log Viewer plugin.

Once the logs are available, they can be analyzed to determine the cause of an issue.

In order to find the logs, first ensure that the WordPress installation is installed on a server that is accessible via the internet. Once the WordPress installation is installed, navigate to the server’s root directory (located in %APPDATA% on Windows, or /usr/share/WordPress on Linux and MacOS).

Inside of this directory, there should be a file called wp-config.php. Open this file in a text editor, and locate the line that reads “wp-log-path”:.

wp-log-path=”/var/log/WordPress/”

Change this line to read “wp-log-path”:

wp-log-path=”/var/log/WordPress/server.log”

Save the file and restart the WordPress server. The server.

log file will now be created every time the WordPress server is started.
