What is troubling you?

Hi. Thanks for the nice and easy to use piece of software. Background: I've just spent some hours battling with a Wordpress migration from an NGINX reverse proxy VM + Wordpress VM to NPM + Wordpress both being in Docker. I finally managed to do it by virtue of being able to essentially guess that my problem was a "wrong hostname" which Wordpress picked up during my first access after importing the data and solved by downloading wp cli into Wordpress instance and fixing the URLs using it.

My actual problem: NPM container logs were less than useful in troubleshooting. All I got in the browser was a generic SSL error and there was zero anything related shown by "docker logs npm". Does NPM have do some additional logging someplace else or what is considered the appropriate route to troubleshoot similar issues?

EDIT: I managed to find /data/logs, would be nice if I didn't have to guess which proxy_host-NUMBER.log would be which actual underlying site.
