Jeeves Server Logging


There are three kinds of Logs that the server writes out: Access Log, Error Log and the Event Log.

In order to change the log properties in the administration tool, go to the appropriate field. Any key-down events (excepting for a return) makes the field editable. After editing the field-box, press return to send the changes to the server. The field-box becomes white for the duration that it is editable.

Server Administrator can modify the file name on the disk where things should be logged. The administrator can also change the log level to get more or less detail in the logs. The standard log levels range from 0-3. Default level is 1. Logging can also be turned off by setting the log level to be 0.

Access log is done in common log format. The common log format comprises of date, remote user, remote host and description string. Error and event log are in free format. The time recorded in any logs can be in GMT or local format.

If you are doing file based administration the properties that are related to the logging are in file httpd.properties: access.log, access.log.level, error.log, error.log.level, event.log, event.log.level, log.time.
