Web Content Manager tracing files

IBM Web Content Manager uses the IBM WAS trace facilities to create trace information. Tracing can be enabled either permanently or for just the current portal session.

Trace is written to...

WP_PROFILE/logs/WebSphere_Portal/trace.log

Permanently enable tracing

1. From the WAS admin console select...
   Troubleshooting | Logs and Traces | WebSphere_Portal | Diagnostic Trace | Enable Trace

   ...and enter any of the following in the TraceSpecification field...

   • com.ibm.workplace.wcm.*
   • com.aptrix.*
   • com.presence.*

   For example, to trace all events:

   com.ibm.workplace.wcm.*=all:com.aptrix.*=all:com.presence.*=all

2. Save the changes.

3. Restart IBM WebSphere Portal.

Enable tracing just for the current WebSphere Portal session

Go to...

Administration | WebSphere Portal | Portal Analysis | Enable Tracing | Append these trace settings

...and enter any of the following values...

• com.ibm.workplace.wcm.*
• com.aptrix.*
• com.presence.*

For example, to trace all events:

com.ibm.workplace.wcm.*=all:com.aptrix.*=all:com.presence.*=all

To enable tracing for deployment and syndication...

com.aptrix.deployment.*=all:
com.aptrix.syndication.*=all

To enable low level tracing for every item.
