4.2.6  Displaying the logfile

The logfile records the activities of the Avira Update Manager Server.

The logfiles for Avira Update Manager can be accessed in the directory: /var/log/ium.

You can define which kind of messages are logged by editing the parameter:

<log_level value="info" />

The default is info. It means that errors, warnings and some status messages will be 

logged. You can decide on the extent of the log file by choosing how much detail is to be 
logged. From error to debug the log file becomes more and more detailed, the default 

info

 being the medium setting.

In error-mode only errors are logged.

In warning-mode errors as well as warning are logged.

In addition trace superficially traces the service and saves it to the log.

Debug is the setting which delivers the greatest detail. When <log_level 
value="debug" />

 

is chosen, the service is reproduced line after line in the log file, in 

order to monitor at which passage in the code the service has encountered a problem.

If you are running Avira Update Manager in daemon mode, it must be restarted
