Opening EAServer Log Files

To troubleshoot problems with services, EJB components, EAServer runtime, HTTP requests, servlet engine, or the EAServer Web console, review the EAServer log files.

  1. Use a text editor to open these files:
    Table 1. EAServer default log files
    File name Description
    installation directory\EAServer\logs\Myhostname.log The main log file, which records messages logged from:

    • Services output writtten to System.out

    • EJB components and components of other types

    • Core EAServer runtime
    installation directory\EAServer\logs\Myhostname -http-YYYY-MM-DD.log The HTTP request log.
    installation directory\EAServer\logs\deploy.log The module deployment to the EAServer status log.
    installation directory\EAServer\logs\undeploy.log The module undeployment log.
    installation directory\EAServer\logs\default.log If you do not set the djc.logFile property, the log file used by EAServer classes and Java clients.

    For example:

    java -Ddjc.rmiTrace=true "-Ddjc.logFile=%DJC_HOME%\logs\rmiClientTrace.log"
    Note: For more information, see the EAServer documentation located at the main level of the Sybase WorkSpace online bookshelf. If this server documentation is not installed, the documentation is available on the Sybase Product Manuals Web site at http://sybooks.sybase.com.
  2. View the file contents and close the file upon completion.
