Where do crash logs for FileMaker Server go on macOS?

Questions

Hello,

I have crashes in Event.log here for a test server:

Time Kind id Server Message
2025-11-25 09:02:19.937 +0100 Fehler 701 macos-26.shared Der Prozess Database Server wurde abnorm beendet.
2025-11-25 09:02:31.931 +0100 Fehler 701 macos-26.shared Der Prozess Admin Server wurde abnorm beendet.

but I can't find any crash logs for this.
I would expect them in /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports, but there are none.
Any idea?

Macintosh HD/Library/FileMaker Server/Logs

Sorry, no. That is where FileMaker stores logs. There I found the Event.log telling me that the crash happened, but not where.

:laughing: When I saw you post I assumed you were asking for a friend.

Logs have become very complicated in MacOS. Here's a link to the best resource I know. It contains a lot of articles and the author produces fantastic software, including log tools.
