No logs with Chrome Console

I discovered n8n in 2023 and was able to create simple and complex workflows. Back then, I sometimes used the Code node with debugging traces via the “console.log()” function. I viewed the traces in the Chrome console via the “inspect” function. For work on AI with LangChain, I updated my environment (moving from Raspberry IV to V) under Docker. My context is this:

n8n version: 1.42.1
Database (default: SQLite): SQLite
n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main): own
Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): docker
Operating system: Debian 12 (64 bits)

The details of my problem are given in the doc file under GDrive (here) with images included.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely,

It looks like your topic is missing some important information. Could you provide the following if applicable.

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

hello @COPINE_Patrick

If you are not building custom nodes, then modifying the variables N8N_LOG_OUTPUT and N8N_LOG_LEVEL makes no sense. The ‘console’ here means not the developer console, but the docker console (the one that you may see with the command docker logs <container_name>

Everything should work fine with the default Log settings:

Hello Mikael,

I reset the 2 variables relating to the logs when launching the instance: export N8N_LOG_LEVEL=“info” and export N8N_LOG_OUTPUT=“console”. However, I still don’t have the traces relating to the console.log function. On the other hand, I have a lot of errors which are perhaps linked to workflows, none of which are active.

Thank you
