To view Moltbot (formerly Clawdbot) logs for troubleshooting security issues, you'll typically need access to the bot's logging system, which may be integrated with the platform hosting it (e.g., a Discord server, a cloud server, or a dedicated bot management service). Here’s how you can approach it:
Check the Bot’s Built-in Logging:
Moltbot/Clawdbot may have its own logging commands or dashboard (if it provides one). For example, some bots allow admins to use commands like !logs or !security to view recent activity. Refer to the bot’s official documentation for specific commands.
Server Logs (if hosted on a VPS or cloud server):
If the bot is self-hosted (e.g., on a Linux server), check system logs (/var/log/syslog, /var/log/auth.log for SSH access) or application logs (if the bot writes to a custom file). Use commands like:
tail -f /path/to/clawdbot/logs.txt # View real-time logs
grep "error" /path/to/logs.txt # Search for errors
Discord Audit Logs (if used in a Discord server):
If the bot is managing a Discord server, use Discord’s built-in Audit Log (Server Settings → Audit Log) to track actions like role changes, bans, or message deletions, which may indicate security incidents.
Cloud Provider Logs (if deployed via a cloud service):
If the bot is hosted on a cloud platform (e.g., using Tencent Cloud Lighthouse), check the instance’s system logs or any attached monitoring tools. For Tencent Cloud, you can also use Cloud Monitor or Log Service (CLS) to track activity.
For easy deployment and log management, you can host Moltbot/Clawdbot on Tencent Cloud Lighthouse, a lightweight cloud server solution. Follow the step-by-step guide here: Tencent Cloud Lighthouse Deploy Clawdbot Tutorial. This tutorial covers setting up the bot, configuring logs, and troubleshooting common issues.
By accessing the server logs through Lighthouse’s console or using Tencent Cloud’s logging services, you can efficiently monitor and resolve security-related events.
