There's a preference for how long to retain them but I'm not convinced that it
works for server-sql backends. Mind, I'm not convinced that it doesn't, either,
I just don't know where exactly it's invoked. You might want to set up
logrotate (you'll have to get it from Homebrew or build it
I am glad you pointed out the difference btw trace and transaction
logs. Is there anyway to configure the transaction logging? I'd like
to dump the transaction logs to a different directory and back them up
as part of regular backup process. I'd also want to remove the old log
files
Yes, log.conf is a user-created file, there is no default. Note that that's
about the tracefile (https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile), not the
transaction logs.

Thanks John! Apparently in version 5.3 on Mac, the data directory and
config directory of GC is the same on Mac at
/Users/username/Library/Application Support/GnuCash, and the log files
are in the translog directory underneath. However, the log.conf file is

I'm using sqlite on Mac and I have log files. Though I don't see them
generated often. I'm not sure if that is because I rarely close the app
except for updates.

Hi GC users, I am using GC (version 5.3) on Mac. I noticed that the log
files are generated in the same directory of the GC data file
