Description _ hlu 2006-09-21 19:01:02 UTC 
EP build20a:
Because all debug message for wss goes to appserver's log file, the server log
file can be easily become too large. After running identity samples from the ide
for a few times, the log file size is more than 1Mb. The file is too large to
open inside ide with a message from ide saying "Opening the file could cause
OutOfMemoryError, which would make the IDE unusable..."
Even the file can be opened outside ide, it is too large and massy for real debug.
Comment 1 Srividhya Narayanan 2006-09-21 19:52:26 UTC 
Is this with the debug marked as FINEST for security on app server or is it just
the debug logs coming from AM by default?
Comment 2 _ hlu 2006-09-21 20:11:31 UTC 
FINEST to get detail wss message.
Comment 3 Srividhya Narayanan 2006-09-21 20:17:00 UTC 
Isnt the resolutiong then to make the debug setting not be finest? this is a
temporary setting purely for debugging right?? I am not sure why this is a bug here?
Comment 4 _ hlu 2006-09-21 20:50:36 UTC 
This is an usability defect using identity tools to debug wss.
Comment 5 Srividhya Narayanan 2006-09-21 20:56:42 UTC 
I am not sure which debug tooling you are talking about. Is it the fact that the
user cannot open the file within the IDE?? Is that a criteria that the runtimes
need to meet? This is the first time that has come up and hence I dont think we
have tracked this with the runtimes yet.. In any case, if you think this is a
criteria for the IDE usability pls file this on AM runtime since they are the
ones creating these debug messages and not the tool.
