Configuring the path to the logs folder

To configure the path to the logs folder:

1. In the Management Console tree, select and open the node that corresponds to the relevant SharePoint server, then select the Settings node.
2. In the Diagnostics section, in the Logs folder entry field, specify the path to the logs folder.

   Do not use variables and masks when specifying the path to the folder. Do not specify an FTP server or a network folder as a location where the application logs are stored.

   The application will save logs using the specified path. If you configure the path to the folder on a server within a farm, the configuration will cover the entire server farm.

3. If necessary, click the Default link to restore the default path to the logs folder.
4. Click the Save button in the upper part of the window.

If the application does not save logs using the specified path, check the rights of access to that folder.
