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/bwce/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.
    For the activities in the SWIFT MT palette, add the following node:
    <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.swift.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 the following node in the BusinessWorks Palette and Activity loggers area to specify a log level for an activity:
    For the activities in the SWIFT MT palette, add the following node:
    <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.swift.runtime.ActivityNameActivity">
       <level value="DEBUG"/>
    </logger>
    Note: For each activity, the ActivityName is:
    • Parse SWIFT MT: Parser
    • Render SWIFT MT: Renderer
    • Route SWIFT MT: Router
    For example, add the following node to set the log level of the Parse SWIFT MT activity to Debug:
    <logger name="com.tibco.bw.palette.swift.runtime.ParserActivity">
       <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.
