      Are you talking about /dev/shm/runcommand.log ?
      if yes

      Parameters: 
      Executing: /opt/retropie/emulators/amiberry/amiberry.sh "/home/pi/RetroPie/roms/amigacd32/alfred chicken (1993)(mindscape)[!][cdd2971].cue" --model CD32
      Launching ...
      ./amiberry --autoload /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/amigacd32/alfred chicken (1993)(mindscape)[!][cdd2971].cue --model CD32 -G

        No, Amiberry doesn't log there.

        In the Paths section of the configuration interface, there's a checkbox with Enable Logging that you can toggle to get more logging info:

          When I connect another controller (basic snes USB controller) it shows in port 0 and I can only use hotkeys, but in port 1 it's Tensyduino and now I can play the game with Teensyduino, but hotkeys only work with SNES controller. This seems to be a port problem.

          I have to do it via /opt/retropie/configs.hdmi/amiga/amiberry/conf/amiberry.conf because it doesn't save

          New edit: even if the checkbox is selected, it doesn't generate the .log file. I changed the .log file directory location for /opt/retropie/configs/amiga and now it works.

          Here's my log file: https://pastebin.com/4Xv5u9cX

            Hi Mitu
            I don't have this file on my PI. Could it be the problem? See my log on pastebin.com

            target_cfgfile_load(): load file /opt/retropie/emulators/amiberry/conf/default.uae
            load config '/opt/retropie/emulators/amiberry/conf/default.uae':3
            cfgfile_load_2 failed
            

            new edit : I added my controller in the /opt/retropie/configs.hdmi/amiga/amiberry/conf/gamecontrollerdb.txt with the ppsspp method and nothing has changed.

                No, I don't think that's the problem - by default there's no default.uae shipped with Amiberry/RetroPie.

                I don't see any issues in the log, the controller is detected - though Amiberry may be confused by the axis used as buttons. But if you updated the gamecontrollerdb.txt with your mapping (and the log shows the loaded mapping) then this shouldn't be a problem.
                You can try removing the mouse entry and see if only with the joystick set the input is accepted and works.

                EDIT: can you post the RetroArch .cfg profile for your gamepad ?

                    I did the same thing for /opt/retropie/configs.hdmi/all/retroarch/autoconfig/gamecontrollerdb_user.txt
                    The mapping was incomplete and wrong.

                    Can it be interference between retroarch.cfg and gamecontrollerdb_user.txt

                      I don't think Amiberry looks there - it ships a gamecontrollerdb.txtin /opt/retropie/configs/amiga/amiberry/conf and it looks also for gamecontrollerdb_user.txtin the same location, so you might want to use the latter file to add your gamepad mapping.

                      /opt/retropie/configs.hdmi/amiga/amiberry/conf/retroarch.cfg

                      That's not the file I was asking - the controller's .cfg file should be in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-joypads.

                        Hi, here it is.
                        /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/retroarch-joypads/Teensyduino KeyboardMouseJoystick.cfg

                        https://pastebin.com/jk7DGSEG

                        New edit: I tried many things, but nothing works. I'm out of ideas. Do you know where is the file where we can select the gamepad. I would like to change CD32 pad to default, but it never saves my selection. it doesn't seem to be in amiberry.conf

                          Solved!! In /opt/retropie/configs.hdmi/amiga/amiberry/conf/amiberry.conf , I modified:

                          default_controller1=joy1
                          default_controller2=joy2
                          

                          for

                          default_controller1=joy0
                          default_controller2=joy1
                          

                          For some reason, with Amiberry 5.X, it was joy 1 and joy 2 instead of joy0 and joy1.
                          I'm doing test for the mouse

                          default_mouse2=joy0 or joy1
                          

                          NEW EDIT: I think It's an error in the original .conf file, maybe it should be fixed. Another thing, my analog joystick is in reverse mode for left and right and also up and down. Is there an option to fix that?

                          In order to have sound, I had to put default_soundcard=1 in /opt/retropie/configs.hdmi/amiga/amiberry/conf/amiberry.conf

                            On Amiberry, it looks like I don't have access to all the buttons on my gamepad for CD32.
                            Can someone do a test with Chambers Of Shaolin and tell me if he is able to punch and kick?
