Exporting Logs to a File

To export plug-in logs to a file, modify the logback.xml.

Procedure
1. Navigate to the <BW_HOME>\bw\<version_number>\config\design\logback directory and open the logback.xml file.
   Note: When deploying an application in TIBCO Enterprise Administrator, you must navigate to the TIBCO_HOME\bw\domains\mydomain\appnodes\myspace\mynode directory to find the logback.xml file.
2. Add the following node to specify the file location:

   <appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
      <file>c:/.log</file>
         <encoder>
           <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36}-%msg%n</pattern>
         </encoder>
   </appender>

   The file tag defines the location to which the log is exported, and the value in the tag is the absolute path of the file.

   Note: You also need to add the file name in the file path.
3. To enable exporting the logs to a file, add the following node to the root node at the end of the logback.xml file:

   <appender-ref ref="FILE" />
   
   <root level="DEBUG">
      <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
      <appender-ref ref="FILE" />
   </root>

4. Save the file.
