aa813test
Perform the following steps to enable logging:
  1. Copy the ArcotLog2FileSC.dll file to the <%SYSTEMDRIVE%>:\system32\ directory.
    ArcotLog2FileSC.dll is not a part of the standard client package. It is only required for advanced troubleshooting purposes and is not required for most users. To obtain this DLL, please contact Arcot Technical Support.
  2. Navigate to the following directory:
    <%SYSTEMDRIVE%>:\Program Files\Common Files\Arcot Shared\conf
  3. Open WebClient.ini file in the text editor.
  4. In the arcot/WebClient section, set the LogSupported parameter to the number of loggers to send messages to.
    By default, this parameter is set to 1.
  5. Create the [arcot/WebClient/LogLibrary
    <n>
    ] sections based on the number to which the LogSupported parameter is set to. For example, if LogSupported is set to 2, then you must have [arcot/WebClient/LogLibrary1] and [arcot/WebClient/LogLibrary2] entries.
    The [arcot/WebClient/LogLibrary
    <n>
    ] section must have the following entries.
    • DLLName
      The name and path of the shared library that enables logging. If you do not provide the full path, then the PATH variable is used to search the file.
      The file name suffix is added automatically, therefore you need
      not
      provide the suffix.
    • HandleType
      Defines the type of messages that must be logged. See "Supported Log Types" for more information.
    • HandleLevel
      Defines the level of information detail stored in the log file. See "Supported Log Levels" for more information.
    • EntryPoint
      The function that is used to get a handle to the logging object. This is fixed for a log handler library.
    • ParamSupported
      Indicates the number of objects to be passed to the log handler. See "Log File Configurations" for more information.
    • Param<n>
      Log name-value pair declaration based on the value of the ParamSupported parameter. See "Log File Configurations" for more information.
  6. Save and close the file.
