PHP Errors

In order to effectively manage AVideo Platform, it is necessary to get feedback about the activity and performance of the server as well as any problems that may be occurring.

AVideo Platform stores error and activities logs in /your/path/to/AVideo/video/avideo.log

AVideo Encoder stores error and activities logs in /your/path/to/AVideo/Encoder/video/avideo.log

To monitor the responses and activities of the AVideo Platform service I use the following command: tail -n 200 -f /var/www/AVideo/videos/avideo.log

Sometimes it is also necessary to check the logs of your operating system, such as Apache error, Apache log, mail log, etc.

The location of the Nginx file may be different depends on how did you install it. But for our default installation, the following command should give you the correct output

tail -n 200 -f /usr/local/nginx/logs/error.log
