The SAS Object Spawner by default produces a log file with limited information. Additional logging can be turned on for debugging purposes.

Follow these steps to turn on additional logging:

1. Make a backup copy of the logconfig.xml file that is used by the Object Spawner to specify logging options. This file should be at a location similar to .../Lev1/ObjectSpawner/logconfig.xml.

   Copy this file, creating a new file called logconfig_orig.xml.

    

2. Modify the logconfig.xml file. For the App logger, change the value from Info to Trace.

   More specifically, find the following logger:

        <!-- Application message logger -->
        <logger name="App">
          <level value="Info">
        </logger>
     

   Change it to this:

        <!-- Application message logger -->
        <logger name="App">
          <level value="Trace">
        </logger>
    

3. If the above modification produces more logging than you need, then specify a value of Debug rather than Trace. This will produce more information than a value of Info but less than a value of Trace.


4. Restart the Object Spawner to activate the new logging.
