Configuration

Log File Location

You can change the log file configuration defined in log4j2.xml:

• You can change the log directory. The default location is $HOME/logs/steve.log. A more suitable location might be /var/log/steve/steve.log (remember to set directory permissions accordingly)
• You can change the log level

Gzip compression

As default, gzip is enabled to return compressed content. But, if you are running SteVe behind a proxy (like NGINX) that is already handling your compression, you should disable it in SteVe.

Multiple interfaces

If your server has multiple network interfaces, using 0.0.0.0 as the [server host] (https://github.com/RWTH-i5-IDSG/steve/blob/master/src/main/resources/config/prod/main.properties#L22) will make the application listen to all interfaces. But this might have security implications.
