# Syslog
|
|
|
|
GoToSocial can be configured to mirror logs to [syslog](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syslog), either via udp/tcp, or a local syslog (eg., `/var/log/syslog`).
|
|
|
|
This is useful if you want to daemonize GtS and not handle log rotations etc yourself but rely on a proven implementation.
|
|
|
|
Logs in syslog will look something like this:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Dec 12 17:44:03 dilettante ./gotosocial[246860]: time=2021-12-12T17:44:03+01:00 level=info msg=connected to SQLITE database

```
