Monitoring VideoCache
VideoCache’s activity can be monitored via log messages it store in various log files as described below.
- videocache.log - This log file is used for logging VideoCache Squid plugin’s activity. This mostly contains URLs recieved from Squid and whether VideoCache could find the requested videos in cache or not.
- scheduler.log - All the background activity performed by VideoCache is logged to this file. This file contains messages about caching of videos from various websites.
- cleaner.log - When VideoCache needs to clean old videos from cache to make way for new videos, corresponding activity is logged to this file.
- trace.log - Whenever VideoCache encounters an error (plugin or background scripts), it’s traceback is logged to this file.
-
database.log - If database logging is enabled using
enable_db_query_log, then all the database activity is logged to this file. Database logging is disabled by default.
