Hi Support,

How do i change the VVEngine default log file location?

Also how do you get it to automatically delete old log files?

thanks

Hi,

For some reason VVengine was dumping log files in c:\windows\temp.

Hi, it is not possible to change the location, but it should be under the application data folder, not in the temp directory... do you have the log in the VVEngine application data folder? thanks

Sorry my mistake file is in app data.

Can you ad specifying the location of the VVengine log file as a new feature.

It would be handy to be able to locate this file on a drive other than the system drive

thanks

Sorry to bump up such an old thread. I'd like to have the ability to change the journal file location as well. I have an Optane PCIe SSD that I'd like to put the journal files on.

Edited to add: I figured out a way to accomplish this on Server 2019 by changing the Appdata folder location property. VVEngine's journal files are now on the PCIe drive.
