How can I check Drupal log files?

I\'m using Ubuntu 10.10 + Apache2 + PHP 5.33 + MySQL and Drupal 7.

Answer 1

Make sure drush is installed (you may also need to make sure the dblog module is enabled) and use:

drush watchdog-show --tail

Available in drush v8 and below.

This will give you a live look at the logs from your console.
