Object documentationTrace and Log Files

 

The SAP Content Server has extensive trace facilities. They are different for Windows and UNIX:

Under UNIX you can extend or restrict the scope of trace reports in the parameter TraceLevel in the configuration file cs.conf (csc.conf). You can find out which trace classes are currently available from the notes in cs.conf (csc.conf). Keep in mind that if you set very low trace levels, the size of the log files will be very large, which could impair the performance of the whole server. The Web server also has a master trace level which must be set in the Web server configuration. The master trace makes the final decision about which messages are recorded in the trace file.

Under Windows there are no restrictions for the scope of the trace. Here all the trace messages are always recorded in the file CS_Trace.txt, provided the profile parameter FullTrace=1 is set.
