When i am logged in as user, the error logs in ~/web/domain.tld/logs is not accessible. How the user is supposed to see his error log. I am specifically interested in 500 errors that cannot be seen elsewhere (correct me if i am wrong).
Code: Select all
demo@prom01:~/web/domain.tld$ ls logs/*
ls: cannot access logs/domain.tld.error.log: Permission denied
ls: cannot access logs/domain.tld.log: Permission denied
When logged as root there are to symlinks that point to /var/log/apache2/domains

I have exactly the same error with nginx, the user will see the symlink but can't open or download it, they will receive
Code: Select all
Error: invalid source path /home/user/web/example.com/logs/example.com.error.log

Its because default ProFTPd doesn't follow symlinks for FTP. I don't remember but there is a specific setting you need to alter.
Alternatively, you can also set log file location in the Apache Server block and put the log inside public_html, do know that the setting will be lost if you "rebuild web"

I have found where i can see the logs.
Log in as user, got to WEB tab. Hover over the web site and then click on VIEW LOGS.
