Other Issue Report Methods

Portal

If an application issue report cannot be submitted, our portal may be used.

Email

If other methods are not possible, email is a reliable fallback. Any message to support@lantern.io will automatically be converted into a helpdesk ticket.

Log Retrieval

Because logs are an invaluable debugging resource, the following provides a backup process for obtaining application logs when Lantern is completely blocked, and in-app issue submission is not possible. These logs can be attached to Portal or Email issue reports.

macOS

  1. Open Terminal
  2. Type open Library/Logs/Lantern and press return
  3. Select the newest lantern.log file and send in an email to support@getlantern.org

Linux (Ubuntu)

  1. Open Terminal
  2. Type open $HOME/.lantern/logs
  3. Select the newest lantern.log file

Windows
