Configuring logging

The configuration file config.yml contains two settings that influence the logging that AuthMe will perform.

Security.console.logConsole (true / false)

If set to true, everything that AuthMe logs to the console will also be saved in authme.log. If a technical error occurs (called Exception in Java), the full stacktrace is logged (= more details). If such an error occurs, it's very interesting for us to know about these details in authme.log.

settings.logLevel (INFO / FINE / DEBUG)

We recommend FINE. This logs, additionally to the INFO ones, some finer details which are still relevant and interesting to keep in a log. Use DEBUG if you're interested in seeing a lot of information from AuthMe. This is typically only used when you're trying to find the cause of an issue with AuthMe.
