Does the ILLiad Database Manager have a log?

Symptom

• Database Manager is not performing as expecteds
• Database Manager has no log4d.props file in the application folder

Applies to

• ILLiad

Resolution

The ILLiad Database Manager no longer has a log4d.props file on the server by default, so it will need to be added manually.

1. Close the Database Manager 
2. Open Notepad or a similar text editing program.
3. Paste the following into the body:

#---- begin log4d.props ----
log4d.debug=TRUE
 
log4d.loggerFactory=TLogDefaultLoggerFactory
 
# root priority - valid values are 'DEBUG', 'INFO', 'WARN', 'ERROR', 'FATAL'
log4d.rootLogger=DEBUG,ROOT
 
# root appender
log4d.appender.ROOT=TLogRollingFileAppender
log4d.appender.ROOT.append=TRUE
log4d.appender.ROOT.fileName=C:\illiad\DatabaseManager.log
log4d.appender.ROOT.errorHandler=TLogOnlyOnceErrorHandler
log4d.appender.ROOT.layout=TLogPatternLayout
log4d.appender.ROOT.layout.dateFormat=yyyy-mm-dd hh:MM:ss,zzz
log4d.appender.ROOT.layout.pattern=%d [%p] %c (%t) - %m%n
log4d.appender.ROOT.maxBackupIndex=10
log4d.appender.ROOT.maxFileSize=50MB
#---- end log4d.props ----

4. Save the file. Save it in the same folder that the Database Manager application in on your computer, and save the file asDatabaseManager.log4d.props but be sure to save it with a Save as type of All files so it doesn't become a txt file.

5. Open the Database Manager and perform an action. A log should now be visible in the Database Manager folder.

NOTE: Once you no longer need the Database Manager debug log, set the log4d.debug=TRUE  to =FALSE. Otherwise, you'll have large files taking up space on your server.
