Logging

PaperCut has two types of logging within the Administration pages; Application and Audit logging. Both log views are accessible via the Logs tab for users with sufficient administrative rights to view these. In both cases, there are some minor configuration changes an administrator might want to tune.

Application Logs

The Application Log retains a complete history of system events (errors, notifications, alerts, etc), unless configured otherwise.

Config key Description
delete.app-log.days The number of days to retain the application logging. A value of -1 indicates no limit

Audit Logs

The Audit Log retains a complete history of administration changes to a user, unless configured otherwise.

You can disable this if a customer does not want to retain this information via Options > Advanced > Diagnostics > Enable audit logging
