Reading yesterday's activity log

Hello, I am presuming that daily logs are cut and filed (VeraLite 1.7.619) somewhere or multiple places (USB stick & ???cloud). How do I download, to my computer, yesterday’s log, or the log of 3 days ago, so that I might investigate events at a certain time?

Thanks

The logs uploaded to Vera servers are accessible only by Vera, you cannot download them.

To have access to historical logs you must first
Store logs on an external USB drive. Be sure to uncheck the “Archive old logs on server” option, otherwise nightly log rotation will still delete your local logs.

You can access the local log files in several ways.

Finding things in logs more easily.

Thank you, Z-Waver. I have now unchecked the item that you identified, and have a 4GB USB stick in service.

Thanks also to the links that you have provided.
