# Turn on debug logging in Fail2ban

To turn on debug mode in Fail2ban, please set its log level to `debug` in
|
|
config file `/etc/fail2ban/fail2ban.local`, then restart fail2ban service.
|
|
If file `/etc/fail2ban/fail2ban.local` doesn't exist, use
|
|
`/etc/fail2ban/fail2ban.conf` instead.
|

```

|
loglevel = DEBUG
|
|
```
