Setting the Log Level of the Server
If your functions call the
error log, you need to make sure that the Directory Server is configured to log
messages with the severity level you've specified. The available severity levels are
fully documented in the Reference section on page 534.
For example, suppose you call this function in your plug-in:
slapi_log_error( SLAPI_LOG_PLUGIN, "searchdn_preop_init",
"Plug-in successfully registered.\n" );
You need to make sure that the Directory Server is configured to log messages with
the severity level
to the log level of "plugin".
