The Replication Agent system log files contain warning and error messages, as well as information about the Replication Agent connections to the primary database and the primary Replication Server. Look for the most recent command you executed at the bottom of the log file to find the most recent message. The logs are located in the $SYBASE/RAX-15_0/inst_name/log directory.
The following is sample output from an instance's log file:

where:
The first column displays a single character indicating the type of message:
I = information
W = warning
E = error
T = trace
S = severe
The second column is a time stamp indicating when the message was written.
The third column is a description.
The fourth column identifies the Java class that produced the error.
The following two columns appear only when configuration property log_trace_verbose is
set to true.
The fifth column includes the method.
The sixth column includes the line number.
The final column is a text description of the message.
In some cases, the information in a specific column
will not be consistent with these descriptions. In these cases,
other information is generated that Technical Support uses to determine
from where the message was generated.
