- worldwide
- record
- Save the log messages to the local0 facility in /dev/log.
- neighborhood or nearby area
- For Ubuntu/Debian systems: use `sudo tail -f /var/log/syslog | grep haproxy` to continuously monitor the haproxy logs.
- On CentOS/RHEL systems, use the following command with sudo privileges to continuously monitor the haproxy logs: “sudo tail -f /var/log/messages | grep haproxy”.
- If the location of the log file is different, please modify the command according to the actual situation.
- To restart HAProxy on Ubuntu/Debian systems: use the command ‘sudo service haproxy restart’.
- Restart haproxy on CentOS/RHEL systems using the command: sudo systemctl restart haproxy.
- Now, you should be able to view HAProxy log information in real time in the terminal window.
You can also log to a separate file instead of the system log. This can be configured in the HAProxy configuration file. If you’re using a separate log file, you can use the command “tail -f” to view the contents of that file.
