WebSphere Event Broker logs

WebSphere® Event Broker writes information to a number of product-specific logs to report the results of actions that you take.

The following logs are used for reporting errors and events:

Eclipse error log

The Eclipse error log captures internal errors from Eclipse and the code associated with your user-defined extensions. Check this log at run time for exceptions that you might have caused during development. When errors are triggered, they are added to the Error Log view of the Plug-in Development perspective, and you can double-click each one to examine details. Entries are sorted in reverse chronological order; that is, most recent first. You can open the Properties view to see entry details. You can also clear the view when you have fixed all the errors, although you cannot clear individual errors.

Some errors might be hierarchical; that is, a general entry for a complex problem might be followed by a number of child entries that list the individual problems in detail.

Start of changeThe same information that is shown in the Error Log view is stored in the .log file in the workspace directory. The default location for the workspace directory depends on your environment:End of change

Start of change
  • Linux platform user_home_dir/IBM/wmbt60/workspace/
  • Windows platform C:\Documents and Settings\user_ID\IBM\wmbt6.0\workspace\
End of change

The Eclipse error log shows errors that are generated only by the user ID that is working with that particular workbench session.

Broker domain Event Log

Broker domain log information is written to the broker domain Event Log. This log is stored and managed by the Configuration Manager. The Event Log displays messages about events that occur within the broker domain, such as deploying topology or topics hierarchy configurations. The messages can be information, errors, or warnings. You view the messages in the editor area of the Broker Administration perspective.

The broker domain Event Log shows errors that are generated by all workbench users in that particular domain.

The Problems or Alerts view

Either the Problems or the Alerts view is displayed, depending on the perspective being used at the time.
  • In the Broker Application Development perspective, the Problems view shows information messages, warnings, and errors for message flow applications and associated resources, such as message flows.
  • In the Broker Administration perspective, the Alerts view shows information about stopped resources (such as message flows, execution groups, and brokers).
