MySQL database server logs

error log, slow query log and general query log : text format.

The binary, relay, and DDL logs are all binary in format, and they are designed for use primarily by MySQL itself, specifically for tasks such as server replication and data recovery

log settings are managed via a user-editable configuration file such as /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf

possible places of the cnf file

• /etc/my.cnf
• /etc/mysql/my.cnf
• $MYSQL_HOME/my.cnf
• [datadir]/my.cnf
• ~/.my.cnf

typically

error.log or mysqld.log in /var/log/ or var/log/mysql/

data directory typically /var/lib/mysql/ will serve as the default destination for any logs that are enabled without an alternate path
