SAS/IntrNet 9.2: Application Dispatcher

Setting the Default Value of _DEBUG

If you are writing your own Application Dispatcher applications or are having problems with some of the samples we provide, you might want to specify a different default _DEBUG value or keyword. The default is 2, or TIME, which will display the elapsed processing time, the Powered by SAS logo (if available), and the Application Broker build number at the bottom of the Web page.

However, you can set a different default value that will take effect if the _DEBUG field is not included in the HTML page. The config file directives Debug and ServiceDebug set the default values for the _DEBUG field. To set them, follow the directive with the value that you want as the default.

See the List of Valid Debug Values for a complete list of debug values and keywords.

Remember that you can set more than one debug option. To do so, add the option values together. For example, to set both the 2048 and 4 options, enter 2052 as the value for Debug, DebugService, or _DEBUG, as appropriate. You can also use more than one keyword separated by spaces or commas to specify more than one option. For example, to set both the 2048 (TRACE) and 4 (SERVICES) options, specify

   _DEBUG=TRACE SERVICES
