Setting Up Log Levels

By default, the log level is Error . You can change the log level to trace different messages.

1. Navigate to the TIBCO_HOME\bw\version_number\config\design\logback directory and open the logback.xml file.
2. Add the following node in the User loggers area to specify the log level of the plug-in for all the activities in an application module.

   <logger name="Module-Name">
      <level value="DEBUG"/>
   </logger>

   The level tag defines the log level and the value is Error or Debug where Module-Name is a BW module name.

   Note: When the level is set to Debug, the input and output for the plug-in activities are also displayed in the Console view. See Log Levels for more details regarding each log level.

   For example, to set the log level of the plug-in activities to Debug for the project application named BwmqSample, you must add the following node:

   <logger name="BwmqSample">
     <level value="DEBUG"/>
   </logger> 
     

3. Optional: Add the following node in the User loggers area to specify the log level for an activity in the application or module where Module-Name is a BW module name and Plugin-Activity-Name is a plug-in activity name like Put, Get, Listen, Publish, and so on.

   <logger name="Module-Name.Plugin-Activity-Name.DefaultLogger">
      <level value="DEBUG"/>
   </logger>

   For example, if you want to set the log level of the Put activity to Debug for the project application named BwmqSample, you are required to add the following node:

   <logger name="BwmqSample.Put.DefaultLogger">
      <level value="DEBUG"/>
   </logger>

   Note: For the activities that do not configure with specific log levels, they still inherit the log level configured for the plug-in or BusinessWorks.
4. Save the file.
