To view debugging output while running FreeDATA:
Open a terminal shell.
cd ~/freedata
To view the GUI debug output:
tail -f FreeDATA-client.log
To view the server debug output:
tail -f FreeDATA-server.log
The run script looks for the config.ini file at: $HOME/.config/FreeDATA/config.ini
If it isn't found, we place a copy of config.ini.example into that location to give FreeDATA something to start with. Changes to the defaults can be made within the FreeDATA GUI.
