MessagesFile
MessagesFile is a position-dependent directive that specifies the name of an alternate file for logging the text that is normally stored in the messages.txt file.
Unlike other configuration directives, MessagesFile is not placed in config.txt, but rather must appear as the very first line of the messages.txt file. This unusual placement insures that EZproxy can determine where to record diagnostics immediately upon startup.
OCLC suggests that you rename the messages.txt files to rotate daily so your information is retained in logs named with the date. This will make it easier to identify the location of the information by date.
