Logfiles are an essential part when it comes to debugging your server and figuring what went wrong. This page contains logfiles from SpongeForge and SpongeVanilla servers including short descriptions.

Configure Logging 

Sometimes plugins log messages that the server owner does not need, or the sheer number of messages hide some more important information. In other cases, plugins or the server will log debug messages that normally don’t appear in any logs. This section explains how to configure the logging. It is also possible to configure the logging in a way that splits the logs in two or more separate files. One could be optimized for the moderators that pay attention to their users’ activity/behavior and other logs could be used to monitor plugins that are important to the admins.

참고

If you think that a plugin logs too many/few messages or on wrong log levels, please report it to its author.

The simplest way to configure the logging is modifying the log4j2.xml configuration file that will be used by Minecraft/Forge itself. You can find and extract it from the root of the forge-...-universal.jar and minecraft_server.jar. Do NOT edit the file inside the jar.

You can tell log4j2 to use the new config file by adding a start parameter to your server launch script.

java -Dlog4j.configurationFile=log4j2_server.xml -jar server.jar

The default configuration looks similar to the following example.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration status="warn" packages="com.mojang.util,net.minecraftforge.server.console.log4j">
    <Appenders>
        <TerminalConsole name="Console">
            <PatternLayout pattern="[%d{HH:mm:ss}] [%t/%level] [%logger]: %msg%n"/>
        </TerminalConsole>

        <RollingRandomAccessFile name="DebugFile" fileName="logs/debug.log" filePattern="logs/debug-%i.log.gz">
            <PatternLayout pattern="[%d{HH:mm:ss}] [%t/%level] [%logger]: %msg%n"/>
            <Policies>
                <OnStartupTriggeringPolicy/>
                <SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="200MB"/>
            </Policies>
            <DefaultRolloverStrategy max="5" fileIndex="min"/>
        </RollingRandomAccessFile>
    </Appenders>
    <Loggers>
        <Logger level="info" name="org.spongepowered"/>
        <Logger level="info" name="com.example.mod"/>
        <Root level="all">
            <AppenderRef ref="Console" level="info"/>
            <AppenderRef ref="DebugFile"/>
        </Root>
    </Loggers>
</Configuration>

참고

This example lacks some comments that are present in the original, make sure you read them to understand why they are there.

The Appenders section defines the output channels for the log messages. This could be a file, the console, or even a central log collection and analysis server. Read more about configuring appenders here.

The Loggers section defines filters for loggers and to which targets the messages should be forwarded to. This is usually the section you must edit if you want to mute a specific plugin in the logs. Let’s look into this a bit more:

<Logger level="info" name="com.example.mod"/>

This will limit the logs of com.example.mod to info and higher messages. Beware, this affects all output channels and also any logger that is created for a sub-package of the given path. Read more about filters here.

<Root level="all">
    <AppenderRef ref="Console" level="info"/>
    <AppenderRef ref="DebugFile"/>
</Root>

This section configures two output channels. First, the appender called Console with a log level filter of info and higher, and last, the appender called DebugFile. It is recommended to keep at least one logger to a persistent target such as a file for later error search.

참고

If you are wondering why your new plugin’s log messages don’t seem to show up: The Console’s log level is configured to be at least info by default which hides your debug messages.

If you don’t want to reconfigure the entire logging, but want to hide a certain plugin from the logs you can also use composite logging options. This can be achieved by referencing both the original logging config and your specialized config that only contains the changed logging options. The following example shows this:

java -Dlog4j.configurationFile=log4j2_server.xml,log4j2_custom.xml -jar server.jar

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration status="WARN">
    <Loggers>
        <Logger name="com.example.logspammer" level="off"/>
    </Loggers>
</Configuration>

In this example all logs from the com.example.logspammer package won’t be shown or saved. For debugging purposes, it might be useful to include your plugin’s log messages in the console so you don’t have to tail the debug log. This can be achieved using the following example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Configuration status="WARN">
    <Loggers>
        <Logger name="com.example.newplugin" level="all" additivity="false">
            <AppenderRef ref="Console"/>
            [...]
        </Logger>
    </Loggers>
</Configuration>

팁

Logging affects performance. If you log too much you might lose a small amount of tps. Also remember that it will become harder to reproduce errors if there are no/incomplete logs available.

SpongeForge logfiles 

SpongeForge writes several logfiles to the /logs folder located inside your server’s directory. As of Forge 1.12.2 - 14.23.4.2705 these are:

debug.log
latest.log

debug.log 

If you’re unsure on how to read a common crashlog, you’ll find help here, but first we need a crashlog. For this short introduction we will just use an example crash from the 디버그 page: Example crashlog of an outdated SpongeForge build.

WARNING: coremods are present:
SpongeCoremod (sponge-1.8-1499-2.1DEV-575.jar)
Contact their authors BEFORE contacting forge

The first thing you’ll notice is a Warning that coremods are present. Nothing to worry about here, that’s not an error, just a warning to contact Sponge support, not Forge.

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/spongepowered/api/event/game/state/GameStartingServerEvent

A few lines below the actual error is found. In this case it’s a NoClassDefFoundError If you’re unsure what that means, head over to our 디버그 page. If it’s a common error, it will be listed there. If it isn’t, you can always ask on the forums for help! Make sure you provide the full crashlog.

Luckily your systems details are included at the bottom of the crashlog:

U      Core{unknown} [Core Plugin] (Core.jar)
Loaded coremods (and transformers):

This indicates that

Minecraft 1.8 with Forge 1521 was running on
Java 8 Update 51 (64bit version) and that
2 additional mods were installed
- SpongeForge 1.8-1499-2.1DEV-575 (which is build #575) and
- Core

참고

Please note that the other three installed mods (mcp, FML, Forge) are required on every Forge server and necessary to run properly.

Now the following assumptions can be made:

maybe the plugin crashed the server
SpongeForge doesn’t match the Forge version: 1499 required, 1521 installed

If you want to know how to solve this, head over to our checklist on the 디버그 page.
