+## Log system
+
+GitLab has an advanced log system where everything is logged so that you
+can analyze your instance using various system log files. In addition to
+system log files, GitLab Enterprise Edition comes with Audit Events.
+Find more about them [in Audit Events
+documentation](http://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/audit_events.html)
+
+System log files are typically plain text in a standard log file format.
+This guide talks about how to read and use these system log files.
+
+### production.log
+
+This file lives in `/var/log/gitlab/gitlab-rails/production.log` for
+omnibus package or in `/home/git/gitlab/log/production.log` for
+installations from source.
+
+It contains information about all performed requests. You can see the
+URL and type of request, IP address and what exactly parts of code were
+involved to service this particular request. Also you can see all SQL
+request that have been performed and how much time it took. This task is
+more useful for GitLab contributors and developers. Use part of this log
+file when you are going to report bug. For example:
+
+```
+Started GET "/gitlabhq/yaml_db/tree/master" for 168.111.56.1 at 2015-02-12 19:34:53 +0200
+Processing by Projects::TreeController#show as HTML
+ Parameters: {"project_id"=>"gitlabhq/yaml_db", "id"=>"master"}
+
+ ... [CUT OUT]

+ Namespaces"."created_at" DESC, "namespaces"."id" DESC LIMIT 1 [["id", 26]]

+ CACHE (0.0ms) SELECT "members".* FROM "members" WHERE "members"."source_type" = 'Project' AND "members".
+ (1.4ms) SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "merge_requests" WHERE "merge_requests"."target_project_id" = $1 AND ("merge_requests"."state" IN ('opened','reopened')) [["target_project_id", 18]]
+ Rendered layouts/nav/_project.html.haml (28.0ms)
+ Rendered layouts/_collapse_button.html.haml (0.2ms)
+ Rendered layouts/_flash.html.haml (0.1ms)
+ Rendered layouts/_page.html.haml (32.9ms)
+Completed 200 OK in 166ms (Views: 117.4ms | ActiveRecord: 27.2ms)
+```
+
+In this example we can see that server processed an HTTP request with URL
+`/gitlabhq/yaml_db/tree/master` from IP 168.111.56.1 at 2015-02-12
+19:34:53 +0200. Also we can see that request was processed by
+`Projects::TreeController`.
+
+### application.log
+
+This file lives in `/var/log/gitlab/gitlab-rails/application.log` for
+omnibus package or in `/home/git/gitlab/log/application.log` for
+installations from source.
+
+It helps you discover events happening in your instance such as user creation,
+project removing and so on. For example:
+
+```
+October 06, 2014 11:56: User "Administrator" (admin@example.com) was created
+October 06, 2014 11:56: Documentcloud created a new project "Documentcloud / Underscore"
+October 06, 2014 11:56: Gitlab Org created a new project "Gitlab Org / Gitlab Ce"
+October 07, 2014 11:25: User "Claudie Hodkiewicz" (nasir_stehr@olson.co.uk) was removed
+October 07, 2014 11:25: Project "project133" was removed
+```
+
+### githost.log
+
+This file lives in `/var/log/gitlab/gitlab-rails/githost.log` for
+omnibus package or in `/home/git/gitlab/log/githost.log` for
+installations from source.
+
+GitLab has to interact with Git repositories but in some rare cases
+something can go wrong and in this case you will know what exactly
+happened. This log file contains all failed requests from GitLab to Git
+repositories. In the majority of cases this file will be useful for developers
+only. For example:
+
+```
+December 03, 2014 13:20 -> ERROR -> Command failed [1]: /usr/bin/git --git-dir=/Users/vsizov/gitlab-development-kit/gitlab/tmp/tests/gitlab-satellites/group184/gitlabhq/.git --work-tree=/Users/vsizov/gitlab-development-kit/gitlab/tmp/tests/gitlab-satellites/group184/gitlabhq merge --no-ff -mMerge branch 'feature_conflict' into 'feature' source/feature_conflict
+
+error: failed to push some refs to '/Users/vsizov/gitlab-development-kit/repositories/gitlabhq/gitlab_git.git'
+```
+
+### sidekiq.log
+
+This file lives in `/var/log/gitlab/gitlab-rails/sidekiq.log` for
+omnibus package or in `/home/git/gitlab/log/sidekiq.log` for
+installations from source.
+
+GitLab uses background jobs for processing tasks which can take a long
+time. All information about processing these jobs are written down to
+this file. For example:
+
+```
+2014-06-10T07:55:20Z 2037 TID-tm504 ERROR: /opt/bitnami/apps/discourse/htdocs/vendor/bundle/ruby/1.9.1/gems/redis-3.0.7/lib/redis/client.rb:228:in `read'

+```
+
+### gitlab-shell.log
+
+This file lives in `/var/log/gitlab/gitlab-shell/gitlab-shell.log` for
+omnibus package or in `/home/git/gitlab-shell/gitlab-shell.log` for
+installations from source.
+
+GitLab shell is used by Gitlab for executing Git commands and provide
+SSH access to Git repositories. For example:
+
+```
+I, [2015-02-13T06:17:00.671315 #9291] INFO -- : Adding project root/example.git at </var/opt/gitlab/git-data/repositories/root/dcdcdcdcd.git>.

+```
+
+### unicorn\_stderr.log
+
+This file lives in `/var/log/gitlab/unicorn/unicorn_stderr.log` for
+omnibus package or in `/home/git/gitlab/log/unicorn_stderr.log` for
+installations from source.
+
+Unicorn is a high-performance forking Web server which is used for
+serving the GitLab application. You can look at this log if, for
+example, your application does not respond. This log contains all
+information about the state of unicorn processes at any given time.
+
+```
