Re: [basex-talk] Test if basexserver is running?

[Michael Seiferle]

Hi Ben, 

I maybe don’t fully get your question right (and I admin I do not know much 
about R), but I’d simply open the socket on the port I expect BaseX to be 
listening on and see whether or not I receive a `BaseX:123456789` response and 
close the connection immediately after.

Re: [basex-talk] BaseX Docker logs

[Michael Seiferle]

Hi Marie, 

I think the log files should be located inside your container at:
> /srv/basex/data/.logs # for current basex versions

Or for your version:

> /srv/BaseXData/.logs # for BaseX 8.6.4 

Maybe you can check your output for:
>  docker run basex/basexhttp:8.6.4
> a6e…
=> 
>  docker exec -ti a6e ls -la /srv/BaseXData/.logs
> total 12
> drwxr-xr-x 2 basex basex 4096 Aug 30 07:38 .
> drwxr-xr-x 3 basex root  4096 Aug 30 07:38 ..
> -rw-r--r-- 1 basex basex  129 Aug 30 07:38 2019-08-30.log


Hope this helps — sorry to hear your container exits unexpectedly!

Best
Michael
