I've just re-installed LBB and have noticed that it doesn't seem to be generating a .log file.

Answer 1 · 2022-12-04T15:54:06.000Z

Did you start any job before?

Answer 2 · 2022-12-04T17:27:41.000Z

After boot lbb generates an empty logfile and sets the first entry: "Little Backup Box". Did you click on Refresh?

I'd tried starting a transfer job (USB - USB) and it works fine. There was no log file generated though.
Also tried to refresh and download the log. No result from either.

Strange thing. Just to understand, This is a new installation on a newly installed latest version of Raspberry Pi OS Lite? Did you do any special configuration (including the settings of lbb)? Could you check for the logfile by ls -la /var/www/little-backup-box/tmp/little-backup-box.log just to check permissions.

This was an update that was overwritten over an older version of LBB (not sure which version)
Output of ls -la /var/www/little-backup-box/tmp/little-backup-box.log is below.

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 337 Dec 5 20:19 /var/www/little-backup-box/tmp/little-backup-box.log

I've just set up the pi again from scratch and completed a fresh install of LBB. All is working and the log is now visible.
Seems as though trying to update from an older version of LBB using the installer script didn't work properly.
Thanks for your help.

Strange, the file should be owned by user www-data and the install-/update-script should set this. Something went wrong, maybe the script didn't finish. We'll never know... Have fun!
