Cannot make it log verbosely, cannot see console in browser

[happyuser]

Hi all,

as my nick says, I am using roundcube happily and have been doing so for a few years now.
Yesterday, I wanted to enable a plugin (password to change cyrus sasl stuff) and needed to enable more verbose logging.

With the latest stable version 1.0.2, as much as I fiddled with $config['debug_level'] in config/config.inc.php, I could not
1) see any more info than one line "Successful login.." in logs/userlogins for each login
2) access / find / see that nice console in the webbrowser (Safari 7.0.5 or Firefox 30.0 on Mac OSX 10.9.4. I disabled all browser extensions in my many tries to see the console)

Can you please point me to somewhere I can RTFM or tell me what I could try?

Many thanks,

Peter

So .. any ideas, anyone?

Exactly what type of information are to trying to see?

Hi,

last time I would have needed this, it was the password change plugin that I need to debug/troubleshoot.

Why do you ask? Is there not a way to globally enable debug logging and even have that error web console available?

Thanks,

Peter

There is different systems within Roundcube so you need to enable logging in each individually because typically you don't need all of the different info at once.

So .. $config['debug_level'] does not actually work?
Is there a place to RTFM on the log mechanisms available?
Thanks,
Peter

I don't think there is a great place to read more about the logging functions in Roundcube the best place is the read the configuration file (config.inc.php) to see all of the different logging options.

But that _is_ what I did, see my initial post. And that did not work.
This is the reason I am asking here.. :-)

It doesn't look like you enabled any of the log types other than smtp and logins so I'm not sure what data your trying to get.
