How to Find and Share Server Logs
Learn how to access, read, and share your Minecraft server logs for troubleshooting.
Server logs record everything that happens on your server — player activity, errors, plugin messages, and more. They're essential for troubleshooting.
Viewing Live Logs
Access the XGamingServer panel and go to Console. This shows real-time server output.
Finding Log Files
Open your server files
Go to Files on the panel.
Navigate to logs
Open the /logs/ folder.
latest.log— Current session's log*.log.gz— Compressed logs from previous sessions (named by date)
Sharing Logs for Support
Copy the log content
Open latest.log and copy the relevant sections (or the full file for complex issues).
Upload to mclo.gs
Go to mclo.gs, paste the log content, and click Save. This gives you a shareable link.
💡 Tip: mclo.gs automatically analyzes your log and highlights common errors — check the analysis tab.
Share the link
Share the mclo.gs link in our Discord or with support.
What to Look For in Logs
| Pattern | Meaning |
|---|---|
[ERROR] or [SEVERE] | Something went wrong |
[WARN] | Potential issue, not always critical |
Exception or Error | Java error — read the message |
Could not load | Plugin/mod failed to load |
Caused by: | Root cause of a stack trace |
📝 Note: Old logs are compressed as
.log.gzfiles. You'll need to download and decompress them to read them.
