Logs

Warning

This section only applies for Dockers default logging driver (JSON).

To view the logs of all mailcow: dockerized related containers, you can use the following command inside your mailcow-dockerized folder that contains your mailcow.conf.

docker compose (Plugin)docker-compose (Standalone)

docker compose logs

docker-compose logs

This is usually a bit much, but you could trim the output with --tail=100 to the last 100 lines per container, or add a -f to follow the live output of all your services.

To view the logs of a specific service you can use the following:

docker compose (Plugin)docker-compose (Standalone)

docker compose logs [options] $service_name

docker-compose logs [options] $service_name

Info

The available options for the previous commands are:

• --no-color: Produce monochrome output.
• -f: Follow the log output.
• -t: Show timestamps.
• --tail="all": Number of lines to show from the end of the logs for each container.
