Setting Up Log Levels

You can configure a different log level for the plug-in and plug-in activities to trace different messages.

By default, the plug-in uses the log level configured for TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks. The default log level of TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks is Error.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to the TIBCO_HOME/bw/version_number/config/design/logback directory and open the logback.xml file.
  2. Add the following nodes in the BusinessWorks Palette and Activity loggers area to specify a log level for the plug-in:
    <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.pijdbc.runtime">
       <level value="DEBUG"/>
    </logger>
    <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.pi.runtime">
       <level value="DEBUG"/>
    </logger>

    The value of the level tag can be Trace, Debug, Info, Warn, or Error.

    Note: If you set the log level to Debug, the input and output for the plug-in activities are also displayed in the Console view. For more information about each log level, see Log Levels.
  3. Optional: Add the following nodes in the BusinessWorks Palette and Activity loggers area to specify a log level for an AF or JDBC activity:
    <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.pijdbc.runtime.ActivityName">
       <level value="DEBUG"/>
    </logger>
    <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.pi.runtime.ActivityName">
       <level value="DEBUG"/>
    </logger>
    For example, add the following node to set the log level of the AF TagDefinition activity to Debug:
    <!--<logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.pi.runtime.AFTagDefinition">
       <level value="DEBUG"/>
    </logger>
    Note: The activities that are not configured with specific log levels use the log level configured for the plug-in.
  4. Save the file.
