There is no log file by default as it could get extremely huge and is
usually not helpful for most purposes to the users, but you can very
easily create one by starting amarok in debug mode in a konsole and
redirect this to a text file. Just start amarok in a konsole with

amarok -d --nofork > amarok.log

I suggest you close amarok once the error messages are gone, else this
file will get really huge :-)
