Error logs

When an error occurs, because your audio or metadata is invalid, a log file is generated in the sub-directory errors of your FTP directory.

There is one error file per day, the name being prefixed by the date, for example: 2021-01-01_error.log. It contains the list of errors that occurred in chronological order, the file that caused the error and the reason of the error.

Please note that files older than 60 days will be automatically deleted.
