Application logs are where events that are recorded when they are invoked by an application or a program running in a system are recorded. Similarly, the Application Logs of the application logs of a running Carbon instance display the log events of its deployed Web web applications and Web web services. The "Application Logs" page has been introduced as a fine-grained view of System Logssystem logs. While system logs display log events of the entire system holistically, the application logs page allows the user to select a particular application and view its only those logs only.

Info

The application logs show logs from the proxy service, not from any logs inside its sequences. To view logs from the log mediator, see System Logs.

The log files can be retrieved in two ways:

  • If syslog-ng is configured, log files are taken from the remote location where the log files are hosted using the syslog-ng server. 
  • If syslog-ng is not configured, log files are taken from the local file system (super-tenant or Stand-alone apps).

For more information on logs and how to change log properties according to your preferences, refer to section see Logging. Follow the instructions below to access statistics on Application Logsapplication logs.1.
