At times, you might need to change the type of messages that the SAS Content Server writes to its log file. For example, you might want to changes the message type from INFO to DEBUG. To make this type of change, you must unpack the SAS Content Server EAR file.

The following instructions explains how to unpack manually the SAS Content Server EAR file:

1. Copy SAS_configuration_diretory\Lev1\Web\Staging\sas.wip.scs9.2.ear to a temporary directory such as C:\tmp in a Windows operating environment or /tmp in a UNIX operating environment.
2. From that directory, submit the following command:
JDK_1.5.x_home_directory\bin\jar -xvf sas.wip.scs9.2.ear
3. After the EAR file's contents have been extracted, copy the file sas.svcs.scs.war to a second temporary directory such as c:\tmp2 (under Windows) or /tmp2 (under UNIX).
4. From that second temporary directory, submit the following command:
JDK_1.5.x_home_directory\bin\jar -xvf sas.svcs.scs.war
5. Once the WAR files contents are extracted, edit the following file:
second_temporary_directory\WEB-INF\web.xml
6. Change the <param–value> to point to a directory on the file system, as shown in the following directory:
   <param–value>SAS_configuration_directory\Lev1\Web\Applications\SASContentServer\log4j.xml</param–value>
7. Copy both the log4j.xml and the log4j.dtd files into the directory that is specified in the previous step.
SAS_configuration_directory\Lev1\Web\Applications\SASContentServer\log4j.xml
SAS_configuration_directory\Lev1\Web\Applications\SASContentServer\log4j.dtd
8. From that second temporary directory, submit the following command:
JDK_1.5.x_home_directory\bin\jar -cvf sas.svcs.scs.war *
9. Once the files have been compressed into a new WAR file, copy the sas.svcs.scs.war file from the second temporary directory to the first temporary directory, replacing the original file.
10. From that first temporary directory, submit the following command:
JDK_1.5.x_home_directory\bin\jar -cvf sas.wip.scs9.2.ear *
11. Once the files have been compressed into a new EAR file, copy the sas.wip.scs9.2.ear file to a following directory, replacing the existing file:
    <SAS_Config_Dir>\Lev1\Web\Staging.
12. Deploy the newly created sas.wip.scs9.2.ear file. For instructions on deploying the EAR file, consult the SAS^® 9.2 Intelligence Platform: Web Application Administration Guide.
