What is phpbb_log ?

Post by 2600 »

In the database and can it be deleted or does it get over written?

It is the table that holds all the log entries.

No it cannot be deleted.
No it is not overwritten
It can be enptied either manually or via an extension (https://github.com/david63/prunelog/archive/3.2.zip)

Yeah, I figured that out, but I saw entries in the database that seem rather old and they don't show up in the ACP logs.

Here's a screen grab. A lot of the entries are from a year ago according to the Unix time stamp.

I am guessing that those log entries are from an extension as there is no log_type 23 in a default install. Without the extension those logs will not be displayed.

Maybe a extension which logs login attempts according the language keys LOG_LOGIN_DATA?
