MONITORING
Some information may increase the size of the log file without providing meaningful information -- requests for graphics or icons, for example, so you may want to exclude that type of information from the log.
To enable logging to text files
1. From the Domino Administrator, click the Configuration tab.
2. Open the Server document for the Web server.
3. Click the Internet Protocols - HTTP tab.
4. Under "Enable Logging To," choose Enabled the Log Files field.
5. Under "Log File Settings," complete these fields:
Note The prefixes used in the file names are chosen in the Log File Names section of the Server document.
Example: The access log file for May 29, 2001 is access-log29051998.log
Example: The access log for the week of May 24, 2001 is access-log__212001.log.
Example: The access log file for May 2001 is access-log--052001.log.
Example: The CGI error log file is cgi-error-log.log.
Note If you chose the Extended Common format, you will not have an agent log; this information will be included in the access log.
Note If you chose the Extended Common format, you will not have a referer log; this information will be included in the access log.
Note The cgi-error log is created only if the CGI script logs information to stderr. The format of cgi-error log information is CGI script dependent. The Access log format does not affect the cgi-error log in any way.
Note To enter DNS names, you must first enable the DNS Lookup setting in the HTTP Server section of the Server document. Otherwise, you can enter only IP addresses. Enabling this setting impacts performance.
