Where to find the logs in Alfresco

[rajavb]

Hi All,
I my office we are using Alfresco3.1 with Tomcat & mysql.
The instalation path are as below
Operating system : Linux
Path : /opt/Alfresco
          /opt/Alfresco/tomcat
          /opt/mysql/mysql-5.1.35-linux-i686-icc-glibc23

Where can i find the user who are accessing Alfresco?.. Error logs of user access.

For Example: A user is trying to move files within his group document library, but he is getting Permission denied (even though the user has permission) so where to find this details and how to identify the real case of this issue.
Thanks,

The alfresco log file on a typical installation should be in /opt/alfresco/alfresco.log. Or you can also check /opt/alfresco/tomcat/logs/catalina.out.

However, the logs will not tell you why the permission error happened (unless you turn on debugging).

Are any of the files locked or working versions?

General Log4J configuration is explained here - http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Log4J_Configuration

Basically you can edit log4j.properties in alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/log4j/properties to turn on levels to different modules as DEBUG, INFO or ERROR.
