Changing the default log location of the Transport Service

By default, the Transport Service (which takes care of transporting content out of Content Manager for publishing) is configured to produce logs in the bin\logs\ subfolder of %TRIDION_HOME%. If you want to change this default, modify it in the Logback configuration file.

Procedure

  1. On the Content Manager server, go to the config\ subfolder of %TRIDION_HOME%.
  2. Open logback.xml for editing.
  3. Find the property element with its name attribute set to log.folder. The value attribute has the default value ./logs, which resolves to the bin\logs\ subfolder of %TRIDION_HOME%.
  4. Set the value of the value attribute to a (relative or absolute) folder location of your choice.
  5. Save and close logback.xml.
