Where can I find the AS Log file (for the servlet container)

[Former Member]

I have deployed an application and it is failing. I cannot seem to find a console log anywhere. Can anyone point me to the logfile? (I have found the "Logviewer", but cannot seem to locate tha application server log file. Simple thing to so with Apache or most any app. server, but can't locate it here.)

Thks.

Newbie appreciates any assistance

Hi Mark,

You can go to your Visual Administrator, then go to the LogViewer service. Drill down from the Server node on the right and open the file defaultTrace.trc. Your System.out logs from your servlets should be there.

Are you talking about the J2EE Engine Config Tool; The SAP Config Tool? Or something else?

Located the log file. Thanks All!

Now, I have found the issue. Seems that there is a "missing user". Is this a configuration issue?

Hi Mark

You will have to use the Log configuration to achieve this. Search for Log Configuration in Search under SDN Content , there are some good docos there
