Setting trace/log file values

When you open a connector configuration file or a connector definition file, Connector Configurator uses the logging and tracing values of that file as default values. You can change those values in Connector Configurator.

To change the logging and tracing values:

  1. Click the Trace/Log Files tab.
  2. For either logging or tracing, you can choose to write messages to one or both of the following:

To specify a filename when you want to write messages to a file:

  1. Click the directory button (ellipsis)
  2. Navigate to the preferred location
  3. Provide a file name and click Save. Logging or tracing messages will be written to this file and location.

Note:
When you name a file, do not use these special characters: \ / : * ? " < > |. They are invalid in the filename.

Both logging and tracing files are simple text files. You can use these file extensions when you set their file names.
