I have couple of questions regarding pm2
server-error-0.log
and
server-out-0.log
files location from c:\users\user\.pm2\logs
to other drive, due to restriction in server's c drive access.How can I change the location of ...log file location?
To change pm2's log file location, there are 2 solutions: define log path as parameter when pm2 command is executed (-l
, -o
, -e
), or start pm2 from a configuration file.
For the parameter solution, here is an example:
pm2 start app.js -o ./out.log -e ./err.log
If you don't want to define log path every time when pm2 is executed, you can generate a configuration file, define error_file
and out_file
, and start pm2 from that:
Generate a configuration file: pm2 ecosystem simple
. This would generate a file ecosystem.config.js
, with following content:
module.exports = {
apps : [{
name : "app1",
script : "./app.js"
}]
}
Define error_file
(for error log) and out_file
(for info log) in the file, such as:
module.exports = {
apps : [{
name : "app1",
script : "./app.js",
error_file : "./err.log",
out_file : "./out.log"
}]
}
Delete existing processes in pm2:
pm2 delete <pid>
You can get pid by doing:
pm2 status
Start the process from the configuration file:
pm2 start ecosystem.config.js
In this way, the logs are saved to ./err.log
and ./out.log
.
Please refer to the document for detail information.
Can I log the error and info in database instead of a log file?
I didn't find any resources in official document. It seems you need to write code and save log to database yourself.
