The WebSphere® Adapter
for PeopleSoft Enterprise maintains a log file that you can view to determine
the status of event processing. All events and errors that relate to the adapter
are tracked by the log file, along with the date, time, and event for each
log entry. Since the adapter logs an error message when it encounters an error
or warning condition, the log file is a good source to start troubleshooting
problems.
Why and when to perform this task
Logging for the adapter is enabled through the WebSphere Process
Server Administrative Console. Follow the steps below to enable logging.
Steps for this task
- Start the WebSphere Process Server administrative console.
- From the administrative console, select .
- Click Component to specify a log detail
level for individual components or click Groups to
specify a log detail for a predefined group of components.
- Select the logging level that you need. The "Logging
levels" table describes the different logging levels that can be set through
the WebSphere Process
Server administrative console.
Note: To view log events that are
below the Detail Level, you must enable the Diagnostic Trace Service. Log
events that are at Detail Level or above can be viewed in the SystemOut log,
the IBM® Service
log (when enabled), or the Diagnostic Trace Service (when enabled).
