Location of log files. Containers.

Reference to logs, in maxadmin:

MaxScale> add server server1 MariaDB-Monitor RWSplit-Service
Could not add server 'server1' to object 'MariaDB-Monitor'. See error log for more details.
Could not add server 'server1' to object 'RWSplit-Service'. See error log for more details.

Where are the log files? I am running all in containers.

Answer Answered by Sam in this comment.

Found an answer: execute "flush logs" in maxadmin. Then output is printed in the terminal where the container has been started.

E.g.:

add server server1 MariaDB-Monitor
Output: Could not add server 'server1' to object 'MariaDB-Monitor'. See error log for more details.
flush logs

Output from maxscale container, e.g.:

2018-11-27 12:32:30   error  : (7) Server 'server1' is already monitored.

For some reason, there are no details regarding following command:

add server server1 RWSplit-Service
Output: Could not add server 'server1' to object 'RWSplit-Service'. See error log for more details.
flush logs

In output of the maxscale container, there is only:

2018-11-27 12:35:05   notice : (7) Log rotation is called for stdout.
