<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 must 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 through the administrative console of the WebSphere Application
Server by enabling the trace service.</p>
<p>The application does not need
to be restarted after enabling the trace service. After enabling the trace
service, recreate the problem. The trace statements should be written out
to the trace log file. After capturing trace information for the recreated
problem, disable the tracing service to prevent unwanted or extraneous information
from written to the trace log file.</p>
