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 automatically. Thanks!

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 nowhere to find (supposed to be located at
GNC_CONFIG_HOME
<https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations#GNC_CONFIG_HOME>/log.conf
according to https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Logging).
Should I create a log file manually if the I want to use a non-default
configuration? Thanks!

The MySQL and PostgresQL backends write the transaction logs to
GNC_CONFIG_DIR/translog.
Seehttps://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations to see where
GNC_CONFIG_DIR is on your OS.

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.

Others will correct me, but my understanding is that the log files are not used
with the database backend, since the changes are committed immediately.
