Claims Web Service Trace Logging

The claimswebservicetrace.log provides trace for each user lookup that happens at 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 FederationTrace.conf file. The FederationTrace.conf file can be found in the directory Agent-for-SharePoint_home/proxy-engine/conf/defaultagent.

Claims Web Service Trace 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 TracingOn setting to Y.

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

   Claims web service trace logging is now enabled.
