Event log

Log entries are visible in Windows Event Viewer in Control Panel.

Mail log

The logging information is sent through an email.

Rolling log file

A text-based log file with the name, size, and location as specified in the log configuration. Log information is added to the file until it reaches the specified size. If additional log information needs to be added to the file, a backup file (also up to the size as specified in the configuration) is created.

CAUTION:
However, if still more information needs to be logged, the backup file is overwritten with the new information meaning that the information that was previously included in the backup file is replaced and is therefore lost.

This can be avoided by using variables in the path to the file.
