Hi,

Most binaries can have debugging toggled live to the regular log files
(/var/log/xymon/*) by sending the daemon the -USR2 signal, or adding
--debug to the CMD entry in tasks.cfg for intermittent processes. Error
and debug lines generated should have a sub-second timing info, while
regular log lines will just be 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS' in format.

The exception here are errors in CGI files, which in theory should be
sending error output to apache's log file and debugging output to /tmp/,
however there are reports of this not working reliably.

Is there a specific issue you're interested in debugging?

Regards,
