<td align="left" valign="top" headers="d0e168 ">There are known cases when the IBM Welcome Page V1.1 application handles
special characters for LDAP attribute values correctly, according to the RFC
2253 standard. However, the <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> Directory
Services (LDAP) directory server does not fully support the standard. For
these cases, there is nothing that can be done other than to avoid the use
of such characters.<p>The quote (") character is an example of this problem.
The RFC 2253 standard specifies that the character must be escaped by preceding
it with a backslash (\) to be accepted as a literal character in an LDAP attribute
value. Since the current version of <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> Directory
Services (LDAP) does not fully support RFC 2253, the server saves both the
backslash character as well as the quote character.</p>

<div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Error logging and debugging</h4><ul><li><span class="uicontrol">Error logs</span> <p>The application server has a variety
of logs to which messages are written. For example, system message, which
can be written by any application server component or application are written
to general purpose logs such as the JAVA Virtual Machine (JVM) logs and the IBM Service
logs. Other logs are very specific in nature and are scoped to a particular
component or activity. For example, the HTTP Server plugin maintains a component-specific
plugin log.</p>
<p>The general purpose logs, such as JVM and IBM Service, are
used to monitor the health of the application server and assist in troubleshooting.
Troubleshooting for specific components might require additional log analysis,
such as component or product specific log files.</p>
</li>
<li><span class="uicontrol">Trace statements</span> <p>Application trace statements
can be enabled for the purpose of debugging problems. If problems persist,
and you have to call IBM Service for help, one of the first thing they might
ask you for is a copy of the application's trace output. Trace statements
are enabled by adding a line to the application's configuration file and restarting
the application.</p>
<p>The application will read the new configuration when
it is started. Application trace statement will be enabled at that time. When
enabled, trace statements are written to the server's SystemOut.log file.</p>
