Server logging
When PingFederate is configured to log DEBUG
messages for troubleshooting purposes, it records all runtime and administrative events that can be used for troubleshooting in the <pf_install>/pingfederate/log/server.log
file, including status and error messages.
Server log information can be output to a database server.
|
The following table describes the recorded elements. Optionally, you can configure elements by editing the log4j2.xml
file as well.
Item | Description |
---|---|
%d |
Event date and time. |
%X{trackingid} |
The tracking ID values uniquely identify user sessions, useful for correlating log messages in the audit and server logs. |
%p |
Logging level. |
%c |
The Java class issuing the status or error message, when applicable. |
%m |
Status or error message. |
To facilitate troubleshooting, administrators can use a filter utility to aggregate related events using the log filter tool.
