title: "Support Options"
Refactor docs (#23752)
This was intended to be a small followup for
https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/23712, but...here we are.
1. Our docs currently use `slug` as the entire URL, which makes
refactoring tricky (see https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/23712).
Instead, this PR attempts to make future refactoring easier by using
slugs as an extension of the section. (Hugo terminology)
- What the above boils down to is this PR attempts to use directory
organization as URL management. e.g. `usage/comparison.en-us.md` ->
`en-us/usage/comparison/`, `usage/packages/overview.en-us.md` ->
`en-us/usage/packages/overview/`
- Technically we could even remove `slug`, as Hugo defaults to using
filename, however at least with this PR it means `slug` only needs to be
the name for the **current file** rather than an entire URL
2. This PR adds appropriate aliases (redirects) for pages, so anything
on the internet that links to our docs should hopefully not break.
3. A minor nit I've had for a while, renaming `seek-help` to `support`.
It's a minor thing, but `seek-help` has a strange connotation to it.
4. The commits are split such that you can review the first which is the
"actual" change, and the second is added redirects so that the first
doesn't break links elsewhere.

# Support Options
2019-04-13 02:46:52 +00:00
- [Discord ](https://discord.gg/Gitea )

2019-04-13 02:46:52 +00:00
**NOTE:** When asking for support, it may be a good idea to have the following available so that the person helping has all the info they need:
2022-06-24 02:56:46 +00:00
1. Your `app.ini` (with any sensitive data scrubbed as necessary).
2. The Gitea logs, and any other appropriate log files for the situation.
2022-09-07 15:58:55 +00:00
- When using systemd, use `journalctl --lines 1000 --unit gitea` to collect logs.
- When using docker, use `docker logs --tail 1000 <gitea-container>` to collect logs.
- By default, the logs are outputted to console. If you need to collect logs from files,
2022-06-24 02:56:46 +00:00
you could copy the following config into your `app.ini` (remove all other `[log]` sections),
then you can find the `*.log` files in Gitea's log directory (default: `%(GITEA_WORK_DIR)/log` ).
2022-07-28 01:22:47 +00:00
2022-06-24 02:56:46 +00:00
```ini
2022-09-07 15:58:55 +00:00
; To show all SQL logs, you can also set LOG_SQL=true in the [database] section
2022-06-24 02:56:46 +00:00
[log]
LEVEL=debug
MODE=console,file
ROUTER=console,file
XORM=console,file
ENABLE_XORM_LOG=true
FILE_NAME=gitea.log
[log.file.router]
FILE_NAME=router.log
[log.file.xorm]
FILE_NAME=xorm.log
2022-07-28 01:22:47 +00:00
```
2022-06-24 02:56:46 +00:00
3. Any error messages you are seeing.
2019-04-13 02:46:52 +00:00
4. When possible, try to replicate the issue on [try.gitea.io ](https://try.gitea.io ) and include steps so that others can reproduce the issue.
2022-07-28 01:22:47 +00:00
- This will greatly improve the chance that the root of the issue can be quickly discovered and resolved.
2021-12-03 13:04:32 +00:00
5. If you meet slow/hanging/deadlock problems, please report the stack trace when the problem occurs:
1. Enable pprof in `app.ini` and restart Gitea
2022-07-28 01:22:47 +00:00
```ini
[server]
ENABLE_PPROF = true
```
2. Trigger the bug, when Gitea gets stuck, use curl or browser to visit: `http://127.0.0.1:6060/debug/pprof/goroutine?debug=1` (IP must be `127.0.0.1` and port must be `6060` ).
2022-07-23 17:33:55 +00:00
3. If you are using Docker, please use `docker exec -it <container-name> curl "http://127.0.0.1:6060/debug/pprof/goroutine?debug=1"` .
4. Report the output (the stack trace doesn't contain sensitive data)
