Enable Logging inside the vApp

For debugging purposes, you can enable logging inside the vApp. To maintain performance, logging is not recommended under normal circumstances.
SAS recommends that you enable logging only when you are directed to do so by your SAS Technical Support representative.
Inside the vApp, log files are generated by a SAS Object Spawner and a series of SAS Workspace Servers. The SAS Object Spawner creates a new instance of the SAS Workspace Server for each HTTP session. When logging is enabled, the SAS Object Spawner generates the log files ObjectSpawner_console_vsasmaster.log and ObjectSpawner_YYYY-MM-DD_localhost_PID.log. The SAS Workspace generates the log file SASApp_WorkspaceServer_YYYY-MM-DD_localhost_PID.log.
The log files are stored in the following location:vApp-path\vApp-instance\Shared Folder\Logs.
Follow these steps to enable or disable logging inside the vApp:
  1. Check the Run Statusdirective to ensure that no directives are running. This is important because the SAS Object Spawner and other services restart when you enable logging. The same services also restart when you disable logging.
  3. Click the Settings icon Settings icon.
  4. In the Settings window, click Advanced.
  5. To activate logging, click Turn logging on (for debugging only). To deactivate logging, click Turn logging off. Click OK.
  6. In the Applying Settings Changes window, click Yes to confirm your selection. Click No to make no change.
