In Appzillon IDE, Log path can be configured in multiple places
1.'Server preferences'.
2.Build > Web
3.Build server > Log Path

Is it sufficient if log path is configured only in 'Server preferences' for both web and server logs? what is the use of providing log path configuration in multiple places?

Appzillon generates a server war file to handle interactions between the front-end and the server. If the application needs to be accessed from a browser, then there is a separate application war file generated to host the front-end resources. These are two distinct war files and they have to be generated and deployed separately.

The path preferences for the server war file can be maintained as part of Server Preferences. Based on the requirements, the platform user can specify, Log Path, File Upload Location, Truststore Path, Reports File Path, etc.

The path preferences for the application war can be maintained as part of OS Preferences -> Web. Here again, based on the requirements, the platform user can specify Log Directory, User Settings Path, HTTP Keystore Path, Trusstore Path, etc.

There are distinct build options available for the server war file and the application war file generation. As part of the build process, the platform defaults the paths maintained at the project level. In case any of these paths need to be modified for that build operation alone, then the required paths can be modified. Otherwise, there is no need to modify the paths available in the build screens.
