==Turning debugging log on/off==
 
*By default, logging of debugging information is disabled.
*Restarting Cumulus (1, 2, or MX) will normally (you can manually change this) turn debug log off (because it is automatically turned off as Cumulus exits)
*Logging of debugging information can be enabled as Cumulus is started (see instructions below for your flavour)
*[[File:Badge vMx.png]] In MX only, you can turn the logging of debugging information on and off while it is running, using the admin interface (see below to identify which settings screen)
 
 
The file can grow very large very quickly so turn the Debug Log option off it not required. If the file grows too large it can cause Cumulus (up to version 3.8.1 - b3091) to crash. (From Release 3.8.2 - b3092 adds MXdiags log rotation to avoid this).

{{Version badge 1}}Cumulus 1.x.y: Depending on which version of Cumulus 1 you are using there is either one or two ways of turning logging of debugging data on and off:
* The only way to turn on the logging of debugging messages in all builds of Cumulus 1, is to stop Cumulus 1, edit the [[Cumulus.iniini_(Cumulus_1)#Section:_Station|Cumulus.iniini_(Cumulus_1) configuration file]], and add a line in the [Station] section: <tt>Logging = 1</tt>, then restart Cumulus 1.
* From build 1003 onwards, you can also turn it on/off using the '''Configuration''' menu (debug option is included in drop down of that menu).
 
[[File:Badge vMx.png]]Cumulus MX: There are three ways to '''turn on the logging''' of debugging messages in all versions of Cumulus MX:
# Close Cumulus MX, then edit [[Cumulus.iniini_(Cumulus_1)#Read-Write_parameters_in_the_Station_section|Cumulus.iniini_(Cumulus_1) configuration file]], and add a line in the [Station] section: <tt>Logging = 1</tt>, then restart Cumulus MX.
# When you start Cumulus MX, from Version 3.4.4 - Build 3068, you can use [[Cumulus_MXMX_on_Linux#Parameter_for_adding_debugging|Parameter for adding debugging-debug_parameter_for_adding_debugging]] as part of the command for starting
# Use the [[MX_Administrative_Interface#Changing_Settings|admin interface Settings menu]], next ''tick'' the 'Debug Logging' menu option, and finally click '''Save''', onselecting the appropriate web page depending on which version of MX you are using (see below). Here you can next ''tick'' the 'Debug Logging' menu option. You can untick the option to disable the logging of debugging information. Whenever you make a change on this page, it does not take effect until you click '''Save'''.
