Exporting Logs to a File

You can configure the logback.xml file to export plug-in logs to a specified file.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the TIBCO_HOME/bw/version_number/config/design/logback directory and open the logback.xml file.
    Note: After deploying an application in TIBCO Enterprise Administrator, navigate to the TIBCO_HOME/bw/version_number/domains/domain_name/appnodes/space_name/node_name directory to find the logback.xml file.
  2. Add the following node to specify the file where the log must be exported:
    <appender name="FILE" class="ch.qos.logback.core.FileAppender">
       <file>c:/bw6-mongodb.log</file>
          <encoder>
            <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{36}-%msg%n</pattern>
          </encoder>
    </appender>

    The value of the file element is the absolute path of the file that stores the exported log.

  3. Add the following node to the root node at the bottom of the logback.xml file:
    <root level="DEBUG">
       <appender-ref ref="STDOUT"/>
       <appender-ref ref="FILE"/>
    </root>
  4. Save the file.
