    Hi!
    Where do I find the log files of each service (for example voxl-mapper) on voxl2?
    (without using the voxl-portal)
    Thank you

        @Eric-Katzfey thank you, but I want to download the textual notes that are written to a log file during the code execution of a service, not the recording of a pipe. Similar to dowload logs in the debug option in the voxl-portal. How do I do that?

          @Meytal-Lempel You mean like journalctl -b -u voxl-mapper?

            @Eric-Katzfey Thank you! I now use journalctl and write to a file in a logger service, for example:

            voxl-mapper-logger.service

            [Unit]
            Description=Logs voxl-mapper log output to file
            After=voxl-wait-for-fs.service network.target network-online.target
            Requires=voxl-wait-for-fs.service network.target network-online.target voxl-mapper.service
            
            [Service]
            Type=simple
            ExecStart=/bin/bash -c "sleep 45 && journalctl -f -u voxl-mapper.service >> /data/logs/voxl_mapper.log"
            StartLimitInterval=0
            
            Restart=always
            RestartSec=2s
            
            [Install]
            WantedBy=multi-user.target
