Logs are set in your settings.py file. A new, default project, looks like this:
# A sample logging configuration. The only tangible logging
# performed by this configuration is to send an email to
# the site admins on every HTTP 500 error when DEBUG=False.
# See http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/logging for
# more details on how to customize your logging configuration.
LOGGING = {
'version': 1,
'disable_existing_loggers': False,
'filters': {
'require_debug_false': {
'()': 'django.utils.log.RequireDebugFalse'
}
},
'handlers': {
'mail_admins': {
'level': 'ERROR',
'filters': ['require_debug_false'],
'class': 'django.utils.log.AdminEmailHandler'
}
},
'loggers': {
'django.request': {
'handlers': ['mail_admins'],
'level': 'ERROR',
'propagate': True,
},
}
}
By default, these don't create log files. If you want those, you need to add a filename parameter to your handlers
Setup https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/logging/ and then these error's will echo where you point them. By default they tend to go off in the weeds so I always start off with a good logging setup before anything else.
