Logging behavior change between the Workplace XT 1.1.4 and 1.1.5 installer


Technote (troubleshooting)


Problem(Abstract)

The log4j.properties file is not being customized with a path for the log file write location, due to a behavior change between the Workplace XT 1.1.4 and 1.1.5 installers. An additional step is now required to enable logging.

Resolving the problem

To enable logging:

After renaming _log4j.properties to log4j.properties, edit the file to add the path where you want the log files to be written. Change each occurrence of {LOG_FILE_DIR} to a suitable path.

For example, change:

log4j.appender.CommonLogCBEFormat.File={LOG_FILE_DIR}WorkplaceXT_IBMcommon_CBE.log

to

log4j.appender.CommonLogCBEFormat.File=/opt/IBM/FileNet/WebClient/LogFiles/WorkplaceXT_IBMcommon_CBE.log

Then, restart the application.
