OpenAM lets you capture debug log messages selectively for a specific service. This can be useful when you must turn on debugging in a production system where you want to avoid excessive logging, but must gather messages when you reproduce a problem.
Perform these steps to capture debug messages for a specific service.
-
Login to OpenAM console as administrator,
amadmin. -
Browse to
Debug.jsp, for examplehttp://openam.example.com:8080/openam/Debug.jsp.No links to this page are provided in the console.
-
Select the service to debug and also the level required given the hints provided in the
Debug.jsppage.The change takes effect immediately.
-
Promptly reproduce the problem you are investigating.
-
After reproducing the problem, immediately return to the
Debug.jsppage, and revert to normal log levels to avoid filling up the disk where debug logs are stored.
