Logging

In addition to the web server's standard log, Q-PORTAL uses application logging.

Log4Net is used for this, and the configuration can be found in the file log4net.config in the application's main directory.

For both configured logging variants, the level of detail is set in the ROOT element:

  <root>
    <level value="DEBUG" />
    <appender-ref ... />
    <appender-ref ... />
  </root>

The following logging levels of detail can be set:

OFFLogs no application events
FATALLogs only application events defined as FATAL
ERRORLogs only application events defined as ERROR and FATAL
WARNLogs only application events defined as WARN, ERROR, and FATAL
INFOLogs only application events defined as INFO, WARN, ERROR, and FATAL
DEBUGLogs only application events defined as DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR, and FATAL
ALLLogs all defined application events

The default setting for productively used applications is set to the ERROR level of detail.
