Enabling Log Analyzer for Application Engine

By default, the Log Analyzer for application engine feature is turned off. To see logs for an application engine program, you must set trace options before you run the program.

This section discusses how to:

  • Set options in Configuration Manager (two-tier mode)

  • Set options in domain configuration files (three-tier mode)

  • Set options to trace a specific application engine program

For processes running on a Microsoft Windows workstation, you can enable Log analyzer for Application Engine by setting trace options using the Trace tab in PeopleSoft Configuration Manager. This procedure is valid only if you are running Application Engine programs on a Microsoft Windows workstation in a development environment.
