0.2.7 and later

LOOKINSIDE_SERVER_LOG_LEVEL controls the minimum server log level. Higher values are quieter. Missing or invalid values default to 2.

Value	Minimum level	What prints
0	Debug	Debug, info, default, warning, and error logs. Enables frame-level diagnostics.
1	Info	Info, default, warning, and error logs. Includes high-volume frame summaries.
2	Default	Default, warning, and error logs. This is the default.
3	Warning	Warning and error logs.
4	Error	Error logs only.

LOOKINSIDE_SERVER_FRAME_DEBUG is no longer used by 0.2.7 and later.

0.2.5 and 0.2.6

These versions do not support LOOKINSIDE_SERVER_LOG_LEVEL. Use LOOKINSIDE_SERVER_FRAME_DEBUG only when you need frame-level diagnostics.

Version	Environment variable	Enabled value
0.2.5	LOOKINSIDE_SERVER_FRAME_DEBUG	1, YES, or TRUE
0.2.6	LOOKINSIDE_SERVER_FRAME_DEBUG	1
