Hi Russ
To check to see if logging is enabled open this file using a text editor:
forum/includes/setup_options.asp
Around line 70 you will see this:
'Logging 'Web Wiz Forums is able to create log files of actions, activity, and errors. However this WILL effect performance so be careful what you enable logging for. 'Logging requires that the folder storing log files has read, write, and modify permissions for the IUSR account in order for Web Wiz Forums to create and write to log files. 'SECURITY ALERT: MAKE SURE THAT YOU MOVE THE LOG FILE LOCATION TO A FOLDER NOT ACCESSIBLE TO THE PUBLIC. Const blnLoggingEnabled = False 'Enable logging Dim strLogFileLocation strLogFileLocation = Server.MapPath("log_files") 'Default log file folder, change this to a folder outside your website root if you don't want logs files to be public
Const blnModeratorLogging = True 'Log the actions of moderators Const blnErrorLogging = True 'Log error messages Const blnNewRegistrationLogging = True 'Log new registrations
Const blnCreatePostLogging = False 'Log the creating of new topics and posts (Don't enable this on busy forums) Const blnEditPostLogging = False 'Log the editing of topics and posts (Don't enable this on busy forums) Const blnDeletePostLogging = False 'Log the deletion of topics and posts |
By default logging will NOT be enabled just as shown above
To change that change False to True
That will enable logging -
Ideally you would then change the directory where the log files were kept, preferably putting the directory above the root directory that is accessible via a browser
