Logging records all actions that occur as
part of WorldServer processes, such as exceptions, restarts, and dates
and timestamps for certain actions.
WorldServer establishes one default log file,
ws.log, but others can
be added during the installation and configuration process. See the
WorldServer Installation Guide for more information. WorldServer
uses the standard Log4J logging package to manage the logging process.
A separate table on the System Logs page contains File Type Support
(FTS) Server logs.
Logging can be used as part of troubleshooting processes to help
track own when certain actions occur. You can change the log settings
in
general.properties such that only specific categories of messages will be logged in
“debug” mode. This may make it easier to track
down problems in some scenarios as the log fills up very quickly with
“debug” on for everything. For example, you could
set up the log to track only ClearCase actions.
