Chapter 8. Customizing error logs in the InfoPrint Manager
Windows server
InfoPrint Manager provides three configuration files for various InfoPrint Manager
servers and processes:
1. spl_error.cfg for the InfoPrint Manager server error log.
2. notifyd_error.cfg for the Notification server error log.
3. sap_error.cfg for all the SAP Callback processes.
To customize error logs for one of these servers or processes to control their size,
whether they wrap, the severity level of messages written to the logs, and the
number of back-up logs that InfoPrint Manager saves, you must perform one of
the procedures in the next section.

Customizing an InfoPrint Manager server error log

By default, the InfoPrint Manager server error log starts when the InfoPrint
Manager server starts. Use this procedure to customize the InfoPrint Manager
server error log.
1. Find the spl_error.cfg file in the bin directory that is under the directory where
2. Copy the spl_error.cfg file into the workspace_path directory.
3. Open a copy of the spl_error.cfg file in the workspace_path directory and edit it
InfoPrint Manager is installed (the default is C:\Program Files\IBM\Infoprint
Manager).
The workspace_path is specified on the Workspace path field. From the InfoPrint
Manager Management Console, click Edit → Service Configuration path to
verify the setting of the Workspace path field. For these examples,
workspace_path signifies the fully qualified path where the error log is in, such
as C:\Program Files\IBM\Infoprint Manager\var\pd.
Note: If you already customize your server error logs, remember to change the
name or move the current spl_error.cfg file in workspace_path so that your
customization values can be copied over into the newer version of the file.
to specify the settings for the log attributes that you want (as shown in Figure 1
on page 34).
For example, you can modify the log-backup-number attribute, which lets you
specify the number of backup logs that InfoPrint saves, including the initial
error.log.BAK file. Before this attribute was added to the product, an unlimited
number of logs were saved.
