How can I tell mapserv where to put a log file so that I can diagnose problems?
Answer: See: Neapolis Reference regarding LOG feature inside WEB section of .map file. See also EMPTY and ERROR features.

WEB Object

...(snip) .. EMPTY optional URL to forward users to if a query fails. If not defined the value for ERROR is used.

Value: [url]

ERROR optional, however highly suggested! URL to forward users to if an error occurs. Ugly old MapServer error messages will appear if this is not defined.

Values: [url]

LOG optional File to log MapServer activity in. Must be writable by the user the web server is running as.

Value: [filename]

This FAQ applies to: Any version.
