An \ejabberd{} node writes two log files:
\begin{description}
\titem{ejabberd.log} is the ejabberd service log, with the messages reported by \ejabberd{} code
- \titem{sasl.log} is the Erlang/OTP system log, with the messages reported by Erlang/OTP using SASL (System Architecture Support Libraries)
+ \titem{erlang.log} is the Erlang/OTP system log, with the messages reported by Erlang/OTP using SASL (System Architecture Support Libraries)
\end{description}
The option \term{loglevel} modifies the verbosity of the file ejabberd.log. The syntax is:
There is a new syntax to define IP address and IP version.
As usual, check the ejabberd Guide for more information.
+- The log file sasl.log is now called erlang.log
+
- ejabberdctl commands now have _ characters instead of -.
For backwards compatibility, it is still supported -.
