Log Files

There are two types of Web Server log files: the errors log file and the access log file, both located in the following directories:

• Solaris OS: /opt/SUNWwbsvr/https-instancename/logs

• Linux: /opt/sun/webserver/https-instancename/logs

The errors log file lists all the errors a server has encountered. The access log records information about requests to the server and the responses from the server. For more information, refer to the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP4 Administrator’s Guide.

Debug Mode

The following options are available: 

• Log output might be used for diagnostics and debugging. You can set the value of the loglevel attribute of the LOG element in the /server_root/https- instancename/config/server.xml file to the following values: info, fine, finer or finest. These values indicate the verbosity of debug messages, with finest giving maximum verbosity. For more information about the LOG element, refer to the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP4 Administrator’s Configuration File Reference.

• A debug flag might be enabled to start the server web container in debug mode ready for attachment with a Java Platform Debugger Architecture (JPDA debugger. To do this, set the value of the jvm.debug flag of the JAVA attribute in the /instance_root /https-servername/config/server.xml file to true. For more information, refer to the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP4 Administrator’s Configuration File Reference.

• The Sun Java System Studio 5, Standard Edition, plugin enables the debugging of web applications. For more information, refer to the Sun Java System Web Server 6.1 SP4 Programmer’s Guide to Web Applications.
