Unimus writes log files to the following directories:
Linux: /var/log/unimus Windows: C:\ProgramData\Unimus\log
Depending on the deployment type, you will find either the unimus.log file (for the Unimus Server) or the unimus-core.log file (for Remote Core deployments) in these directories.
In cases where Unimus fails to start correctly, or when there's an issue with the connection between the Server and a Core, checking the log file should be the first step in troubleshooting.

System events – Unimus Server and Core startup events, communication between the Unimus Server and Core, log level changes (e.g., enabling/disabling debug mode)
