JasperReports Server Log Files

This documentation is an older version of JasperReports Server Community Project Installation Guide. View the latest documentation.

Log files contain important information about JasperReports Server operations. If your application server is Tomcat, JBoss, or GlassFish, the log output goes to one of the following files:

Tomcat:	<tomcat>/webapps/jasperserver/WEB-INF/logs/jasperserver.log
JBoss:	<jboss>/server/default/deploy/jasperserver.war/WEB-INF/logs/jasperserver.log
GlassFish:	<glassfish>/domains/domain1/autodeploy/jasperserver.war/WEB-INF/logs/jasperserver.log

You can configure the log output and logging levels in the log4j.properties file in the WEB-INF folder.

To change the logging levels while you are running JasperReports Server:

Browse to http://<hostname>:8080/jasperserver/log_settings.html. The Log Settings page appears.

Change logging levels using the drop-down menus.

Changes to logging levels affect only the current session of JasperReports Server. Logging levels revert to default settings as defined in the properties files at the next startup.

For more information about system logging, see the JasperReports Server Administrator Guide.
