Monitoring the cogserver.log file

The CogServer will write log entries from various subsystems to the file /tmp/cogserver.log. Some subsystems may have their own log files; refer to their respective documentations for details.

To keep an eye on the log file, start a new Terminal window and run

tail -f /tmp/cogserver.log

You should see some output similar to the following:

opencog@locahost:/opencog/build$ tail -f /tmp/cogserver.log
