Error Logs for Directory Proxy Server

Error logs contain information about the health of the Directory Proxy Server. Error messages are categorized according to the cause of the message. The following table lists the categories of messages that can be included in an error log.

Table 23-1 Message Categories for Error Logs

Category Name	Category Description
`CONFIG`	Information about configuration
`DECODE`	Information about operation decoding
`PLUGIN`	Information about plug-in processing
`PROCESSING`	Information about a significant event that occurred during client processing
`BACKEND`	Information about an operation with a data source
`INTERNAL`	Information about an internal error in the core server
`SHUTDOWN`	Information about an event at server shutdown
`STARTUP`	Information about an event at server startup

Error Log Levels

Each message category can be configured with one of the following log-levels:

none No messages are included in the log file.
error Only error messages are included in the log file.
warning Error messages and warning messages are included in the log file.
info Errors, warnings and informational messages are included in the log file.
all All messages are included in the log file. In most cases, this setting produces the same results as the info setting. In certain situations, this setting enables additional debugging messages to be logged.
inherited The log level is inherited from the value of the default-log-level property.

By default, the log level for each message category is inherited. As the default-log-level property is set to info, each category inherits the info log level.

The log-level of a message category works in conjunction with the severity level of a message to determine which messages are included in the log file. For more information, see Message Severity.

Format of an Error Message

An error log message has this format:

timestamp - message category - message severity - message text
