How is server log files working with Kratos? If server is shutdown and restarted, will logs be persisted?

Hi Jonny - Logs will always be sent to stdout and stderr, so you need to pipe them into a log file. Shutdown / restart shouldn't cause issues, assuming you _append to_ rather than overwrite your log files.

OK thanks, I'm just wondering where to actually put the pipe command.

The command is straight from the docker-compose command, from quickstart.yml, I just added the part from &gt;&gt; to the end

```serve -c /etc/config/kratos/kratos.yml --dev --watch-courier &gt;&gt; /somedirectory/file.log 2&gt;&amp;1```

This looks right to me - any issues with this command?

Yes it's never writing anything to the fiel
