Changing the Maximum Size for the Storage of the ERROR.PDF FileLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

When the rendering of a form fails, Adobe document services create a file that contains detailed information about the error, called Error.PDF. This file is written on the server that hosts the Adobe document services in the directory < DIR_GLOBAL > \AdobeDocumentService s \renderErrorLog\ErrorFiles . The file name is <Date+Time+ApplicationName+Username>.pdf .

After it creates the Error.PDF, the system examines the directory to determine the total size of files in the directory. If that size is more than the maximum allowed, it begins deleting files (oldest first) until the directory size is below the maximum allowed or until only one error file is left in the directory.

Note

The default size of the error file directory is 0 MB, because if your forms contain security-related data or information, you may avoid storing Error.PDF files. To enable the storage of Error.PDF files you have to set the value for the <threshold>.

Note that this directory does not exist initially. The system creates it automatically the first time a rendering error occurs.

Procedure

If you want to change the maximum size, do the following:

  1. Change the value by modifying the file renderErrorConfig.xml in the directory < DIR_GLOBAL > \AdobeDocumentService s \renderErrorLog.

  2. Save the file

  3. Start the AS Java for the change to take effect.

Example

Here is a sample renderErrorConfig.xml :

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<renderErrorLog>

<!-The m a ximum size of error files directory, measure in MB-->

<threshold>

100

</threshold>

</renderErrorLog>
