Log

The following backup files are created: connect_catalina.log and service_status.log.

  • The connect_catalina.log contains all logged events for the Alteryx Connect server.

  • Only the last 1 MB of the connect_catalina.log is displayed. The older versions of the log are stored on the server.

  • No logs are overwritten.

  • Backup files older than 30 days are deleted. This is done via logback.xml configuration file.

  • There is no size limit on the backup file size.

  • Log settings can be directly changed in the path C:\Program Files\AlteryxConnect\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\classes\logback.xml.

  • Daily backups are created with the file pattern connect_catalina-{year-month-day}.log.

  • CopyTomcatLogJob is executed every 5 minutes to append the existing Tomcat logs (connect.out) to connect_catalina.log.

  • There is no backup policy defined for service_status.log.
