Logs Debug Mode

Turning on Debugging (optional)

• If you'd like to try and do some debugging yourself, you can change the DSpace logger settings to DEBUG which will sometimes provide you with more information about the error.

• To turn on debugging, visit the /home/dspace/config/log4j.properties file and do the following:

• To enable DEBUG logging in the /home/dspace/log/dspace.log file, change the log4j.rootCategory and log4j.logger.org.dspace settings to DEBUG rather than INFO.
• (XMLUI Only) To enable DEBUG logging in the cocoon.log file, change the log4j.logger.org.apache.cocoon setting to DEBUG rather than INFO.

NOTE: You'll need to restart Tomcat after enabling DEBUG mode in the log4j.properties file.

WARNING: Make sure to turn off debugging once you are finished. Leaving debugging turned on will cause the log files to grow very large very quickly!
