logDirectory

logDirectory

This option was added in Profound.js version 7.6.0.

Description

This option controls the directory for log files written by the Profound.js process (see logging for more information).

It can be set to either an absolute path, or a path relative to the Profound.js installation directory. The directory is created automatically, if necessary, at the time the configuration is applied.

Default Value

  • Instance started with STRTCPSVR on IBM i - /profoundjs-base/instances/INSTANCE_NAME/logs;

  • Otherwise - INSTALLATION_DIRECTORY/logs.

Example

Write logs to a dedicated directory outside the installation, so that reinstalling the product does not disturb them. Note that backslashes must be escaped in a JavaScript string:

logDirectory: "c:\\logs"
