Server logs

Under Server logs you can display or download the current or past logs.

If the refresh function is activated for the current protocol (see symbols below), the display is updated automatically.

Server log

In this area you can influence the log display with the following buttons.

Activates automatic log file refreshing
Stops automatic log file refreshing
Clears the log display and "rewinds" the log
Clears the log display
Refreshes the display and appends new log messages
Scrolls to the end of the list as soon as a new line is appended to the log
Wraps lines if not enough space is available
Download the log file selected under the date

You can use the date selection field to view older log files in the display. This field will have the current date selected by default.

If you want to search for a specific line or word, you can use the search box in the toolbar. In addition, you can use the arrows to move between the various hits after you run a search.

You can use the Logging level field to filter messages by specific message types. If, for example, you only wanted to see error messages, you would set the level to "Error".

Debug mode

The Debug Mode drop-down switch temporarily activates the server's debugging mode without restarting the server. All requests to the server are logged in detail while this mode is active.

There are four modes available, which build on each other:

  • Normal: Disables debug mode
  • Debug mode: Enables debug mode and provides detailed information about the web service call and the server
  • Debug mode with requests: Like the previous level, with additional information about the HTTP request for web service calls
  • Debug Mode with Requests and Payload: Like the previous level, with the added feature of recording the entire HTTP request payload.
caution

Debug mode outputs a lot of information very quickly in the log, and accordingly should be enabled only briefly.

For information on where to find the log files in the filesystem, please refer to the "Directory structure" chapter.
