Debugging

Try the built-in loggest displays:

• The client daemon's logs are available at "about:loggest"
• The server's logs are available at "about:loggest-server" if the server is run with "--loggest-web-debug".

Have Firefox display websocket connection details by enabling PRLogging for it:

• "export NSPR_LOG_MODULES=nsWebSocket:5" then run, to get on stdout
• "export NSPR_LOG_FILE=/tmp/firefox.log" if you don't want it on stdout
• On windows, use "set NSPR_LOG_MODULES=nsWebSocket:5" and "set NSPR_LOG_FILE=%TEMP%\log.txt"
