The directory locations outlined below are used to store MailArchiva's configuration, application and logging data.
Server Configuration: MailArchiva's entire server configuration is maintained in a file called server.conf. The server.conf file can be edited using any text editor and is located in the configuration directory indicated below.
Logging Data:MailArchiva's server logs comprise of both a core and an instance debug.log file. It is separated out this way, since the product is multi-tenant. If you experience problems with the server, view the contents of the two debug.log files to troubleshoot problems. Each debug.log file is located in both the core (e.g. C:\ProgramData\MailArchiva\core\..) and instance (e.g. C:\ProgramData\MailArchiva\ROOT\..) locations.
