Enable logging

Before you can enable logging create the Feedback database. Run the following tasks to configure the Feedback database:

• feedback-database

  • Linux:

    ./WPSconfig.sh feedback-database

  • Windows:

    WPSconfig.bat feedback-database

  • i5/OS:

    WPSconfig.sh -profileName profile_root feedback-database

    where profile_root is the name of your IBM^® WebSphere^® Application Server profile where IBM WebSphere Portal Express is installed

• setup-feedback

  • Linux:

    ./WPSconfig.sh setup-feedback

  • Windows:

    WPSconfig.bat setup-feedback

  • i5/OS:

    WPSconfig.sh -profileName profile_root setup-feedback

    where profile_root is the name of your IBM WebSphere Application Server profile where IBM WebSphere Portal Express is installed

Notes:

• The task feedback-database will still work if you have already transferred your data from the default database to another database, as long as the target database is available.

• If you are targeting Feedback data to the same database containing other WebSphere Portal Express data, nothing additional is required. However, if you are targeting a separate database from the one containing your WebSphere Portal Express data, you will need to follow the guidelines in the Configuring databases section of the information center to configure the target database.

Once the Feedback database has been configured, enable logging by performing the following steps:

1. Open FeedbackService.properties from the following path:

   • Linux:

     portal_server_root/shared/app/config/services

   • Windows:

     portal_server_root\shared\app\config\services

   • i5/OS: in the UserData directory: portal_server_root_user/shared/app/config/services

2. Ensure that the following property is set to true:

   loggingEnabled = true

3. Restart WebSphere Portal Express.
