    Historically, logging had to be manually enabled on new servers, with a
    log directory set. This meant that when someone suddenly needed
    something from the logs on a new server, they'd find that they hadn't
    yet turned on logging, and would have nothing to reference.

    We now enable logging by default, and set the default log destination to
    be the site directory's logs/ directory.

    This will only impact new installs.

    Started a new server. Verified logging was active and writing to the
    correct location.
