Logging

Logging

You can setup logging, if you sign on as a tenant administrator and select settings as described under Settings for tenant.

 

Under logging you see this:

 

NG2Logging0001

 

 

Under logging you have these subjects:

 

1.Job log settings for tenant. Here you setup for how long you want to keep job logs.

2.The icon, Compress Log database now.

3.Error report email. Here you can setup one or multiple email address(es) to send error reports to, if errors should occur during processing. If you want to insert multiple receivers, then you need to separate the email addresses with a semicolon e.g. email1@mydomain.com;email2@mydomain.com

4.Email log setup. Here you can enable the email log and setup for how long you want to keep entries in the email



Job log settings for tenant :

This is related to the job logs tab of InterFormNG2. Here you can setup for how long you want to keep entries in the job log, and if you want to send an email to an administrator if a workflow hits a problem during processing on an input file.

 

In order to setup the job log, you first need to sign in as described here.

 

Then you click Logging on the left below Other:

 

NG2Logging0002

 

Then you see this option on the top:

 

NG2JobLogs0001

 

Here you can setup how long job log entries should be kept and you can also compress the log database with the icon, Compress log database now.

 

 

Delete job log entries older than

Here you setup for how long the job log entries should be kept - or when the entries are considered to old, that they should be deleted.

With the setting above the entries are kept for 7 days.

 

Above you state the days, hours or minutes. Remember to click Save in the bottom right to save any change you might have done.

 

 

Compress log database now

If you click this icon on the screen above, then the size of the embedded/internal job log database will be reduced as this will release the disc space used by deleted contents. You should avoid running this while processing anything in the workflows as this will temporarily lock the database, and write attempts from the workflow might fail during this compression.


Error report email :

It is possible to setup InterFormNG2 to send an email, if an error should occur. Here you can setup which email address to send to.

Alternatives (or rather additions) to this are the on-error option and error handler in the workflow, where you can setup a workflow to call a specific error workflow, if an error should occur.

 

 

In order to setup the error report email, you first need to sign in as described here.

 

Then you click Logging on the left below Other:

 

NG2Logging0002

 

Then you see this option as the second from the top:

 

NG2ErrorReportEmail0001

 

Here you have these fields:

(Remember to click Save in the bottom right to save any change you might have done.)

 

Error report email enabled

You can activate this option here. On the image above this option has been activated. (It is blue and the switch is on the right).

 

Email server

In order for the tenant to be able to send an error email you need to refer to a functioning email server.

 

Subject

The subject of the outgoing email.

 

Recipient

The receiver of the error report email.


Email log setup :

In order to use the email log you first need to enable it and set it up. This is covered in this section.
