Claims Web Service Logging

The claimswebservice.log records events that take place in the WS layer in the Agent for SharePoint. This file can be found in the directory Agent-for-SharePoint_home/proxy-engine/logs. The logging configuration is done in the LoggerConfig.properties file.

The claims web service logging is disabled by default. You can enable claims web service logging by performing the following procedure in the LoggerConfig.properties file.

Note: Restart the Agent for SharePoint if you change the LoggerConfig.properties file.

Follow these steps:

  1. Open the LoggerConfig.properties file. This file can be found in the directory Agent-for-SharePoint_home/Tomcat/webapps/ClaimsWS/WEB-INF/classes.
  2. Set the LoggingOn setting to Y.

    Accept the default name and location for the LogFileName setting, which points to the claimswebservice.log file.

    Claims web service logging is now enabled.
