Increase ESP-IDF logging level

General
#1

I’m trying to increase the level of wifi logging in my console.

I tried adding the following in my main.c (within mgos_app_init):
esp_log_level_set("wifi", ESP_LOG_VERBOSE);

However, this seems to make no difference. How should I go about increasing the level of wifi logging to Verbose? (My debug.level=3)

Debug is Mongoose-OS debug, you are working on IDF debug and that is probably filtered out by Mongoose-OS.
Did you try debug.level =4 ? That is “verbose” in mos.

#4

@needlerp Have a look here

mos’s debug.level does not control esp-idf’s log level.

Thanks @nliviu - that was what I was looking for, but unfortunately now I just get a core dump on boot:

I did test the empty application with CONFIG_ESP32_WIFI_DEBUG_LOG_ENABLE=y and did not have any core dump.

#7

Thanks, I had debug.level=3 and also file_logger.enable=true which was all too much for it to cope with. Turned those down/off and it runs OK now.
