Hello,
Apologies if this is not the right place for this enquirey, please redirect me if so.
I’ve just set up a TTN lora gateway using a RAK2247 and a Rasperry Pi booted from RAK’s bootable SD image. It works but I’m getting HUGE volumes of log data to /var/log/daemon.log. Is there any way to control the verbosity of logging?
Much of the logging is to do with the wireless AP which I have disabled by blacklisting the wifi driver - I’m running over ethernet and want to conserve power - is there a way of configuring the software to not implement the wifi AP?
Thanks.
Use the command "sudo gateway-config",
1.
2.Select 2 Enable Client Mode, this will turn off ap mode.
Thank you, I should have spotted that. Could you also help me understand whats going on with these log lines:

Which appear continuously.
Thanks again.
OK, So I tried killing the lora-app-server, lora-gateway-bridge and loraserver tasks and my ttn feed still works fine, so I guess I only need the lora-pkt-fwd service. So how do I configure the system so it doesn’t launch the unwanted services?
Thanks again.
This are the commands to disable all ChirpStack (former LoRaSever) process:
sudo systemctl disable loraserver
sudo systemctl disable lora-app-server
sudo systemctl disable lora-gateway-bridge
sudo systemctl disable postgresql
sudo systemctl disable mosquitto
sudo systemctl disable redis
Regards,
Todor

Thank you, perfect, will do.
Hello again. Having done all I can to eliminate error & warning lines written to daemon.log by rak-gateway, I’m still left with a log file that grows by 100 lines of apparent stream-of-consciousness junk every 2 minutes. I’m wondering if this is normal? If so, is there a way I can reduce the verbosity so that only errors and warnings are logged. I can post a sample 100 junk lines if that would help. Thanking you in advance for your advice.
Hi. Yes, please give us error log here.
OK, you asked for it, I get this block every 2 mins:

Oh… This is the normal log from packet forwarder. You have to check for a command or setting for periodically cleaning the logs file. Or you have to find another workaround. I will check such when have some time…
