How can I view a log of my console?

[Vanderburg]

In many game types, a specific console log is not created by default. If your server is malfunctioning (And during a lot of startups), the ability to view the server console is not available, which can make certain errors difficult to find. To enable console output, or condebug, you would need to:

1. Visit your NFO control panel and select the "Server control" tab.
2. Check the "Add -condebug to the command line for the day" check box.
3. Submit the page by selecting the "Set -condebug" button.
4. Restart your game server at the top of the page.

It will then begin logging all console entries to a file named console.log, which will be placed into the main mod folder of your FTP. For example, in a L4D2 server, this will be left4dead2/console.log or in a CS:Source server, it can be found at cstrike/console.log. This will automatically be disabled each morning due to the increased I/O load it causes.
