EventSentry writes debug information to log files to help troubleshoot configuration and software issues. To prevent disk space issues, all log files are capped at a maximum size and will automatically rotate (e.g., _1.log becomes _2.log) once the limit is reached.

Log File Locations:

Modern Versions (Current): %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\eventsentry\logs\

The following log files are created by each component:

ComponentFile Name PatternMax File SizeMax Total Size

Important Notes

• Enable Logging: Log data is only generated when the Debug Logging Level is set to something other than None in the Service Control options. Check https://www.eventsentry.com/kb/60 for more information.

• Applying Changes: Save the configuration after changing the debug level, restarting the service is recommended.
