LogDirectory Property

The path to a directory for logging.

Syntax

public String getLogDirectory();
public void setLogDirectory(String logDirectory);

Remarks

Setting LogDirectory will instruct the component to log the details of each transmission to unique files in the specified directory. For each request processed, the bean will log the complete text of the incoming request, the EDI data (if it was able to be determined), and the outgoing response.

Two files will be written for each transmission. The diagnostic log will have the extension ".log" and will log the complete text of the incoming request, the EDI data (if it was able to be determined), and the outgoing response. The data file will have the extension ".dat" and will store the EDI data only. In case of error an additional file with extension ".err" file will be written, and the error information will also be written to the ".log" file.

The filenames will be chosen automatically by the bean. Each filename will be the system time, in the format YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS-MMMM, with extensions "-2", "-3", used in case files of those names already exist. After each transaction is processed LogFile will contain the name of the files just written, minus the extension ".log" or ".dat".

If either log cannot be written an exception will be thrown; server applications should ensure that the server has the appropriate write permissions.

Default Value

""
