Setting Up Log Levels

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

If you do not configure any log levels, the plug-in uses the default log level of TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks. The default log level 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 node in the BusinessWorks Palette and Activity loggers area to specify a log level for the plug-in:
    <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.sap.runtime">
       <level value="DEBUG"/>
    </logger>

    The value of the level element can be Error, Info, or Debug.

    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. See Log Levels for more details regarding each log level.
  3. Optional. Add one of the following nodes in the BusinessWorks Palette and Activity loggers area to control a log level for the activity.
    • For example to control the log level for the IDoc Acknowledgment activity, set the following parameters:
    <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.sap.runtime.idocacknowledgment">
       <level value="TRACE"/>
    </logger>

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

    Note: The activities not configured with specific log levels use the log level configured for the plug-in.
    Logger names for each activities are as follows:
    • IDoc Acknowledgment

      com.tibco.bw.palette.sap.runtime.idocacknowledgment
