By default, TeamConnect has several active file appenders--that is, the logs that they generate are written as text files. These files are stored in the location specified for log folders at the time when TeamConnect was installed. There are three default logging appenders:

•Default (for system logging)—Logs all of the messages that are generated by all of the system loggers and writes them to the system.log file. You can deactivate the Default appender, but it cannot be deleted.

If you want a log that isolates messages for a specific area of TeamConnect, you must define an appender for the corresponding logger.

oFor instructions on defining a system appender, see Defining System Appenders.

oFor a description of the Default system log file, see Pattern Example.

•XML Appender—Logs messages regarding XML requests, according to the level selected for the XML logger, and writes them to the xml.log file.

•Default (for audit logging)—Logs messages from all active audit loggers and writes them to the audit.log file. You can deactivate the Default appender, but it cannot be deleted.

Note: If Collaborati Spend Management is installed on your system, the Collaborati Appender is installed by default.
