Logging

[Former Member]

Hi all,

How can I view the J2EE servers logs?

I found the Visual Administrator and Log Viewer, however this application seems very complex.

For instance where do simple System.out.println() statements go?

Thanks!

Hi Harm de Laat,

I have answered this question in the following tread:

Anyways for you convinience I am copying it here:

If you want to use the defaultTrace.trc file for logging then just write the statement:

<b>System.err.println("This is the error in defaultTrace.0.trc file");,</b> instead of <b>System.out.Println().</b>

Just include this line in the code. You can view the line in defaultTrace.trc file. Similarly you can write anything you want in this statement.

For eg:

<b>System.err.println("Value==" +value);</b>

This will print the value in the defaultTrace.0.trc file

You can locate this trace file from the following server location:

<b><Server>:\usr\sap\A06<System_ID>\JC70<Instance_ID>\j2ee\cluster\server0\log</b>

or go to portal and visit the following path:

Sys admin->support->portal runtime->log viewer

I hope this should solves your problem.

Pravesh
