Logging

KONNEKT writes the log to %localappdata%\KONNEKT. The log consists of up to 6 files, that are rotated, if full:

  • client.txt

  • client.1.txt

  • client.2.txt

  • client.3.txt

  • client.4.txt

  • client.5.txt

Client.txt holds the newest and client.5.txt the oldest log lines.

The Log Level setting determines what information is written to to log.

The files will be rotated, if the newest file has reached the Log Rotation size.
