To view this administrative console page, click Application servers > > server name > HTTP error and NCSA access logging .
Use this panel to configure an HTTP error log and NCSA access logs for an HTTP transport channel.
The HTTP error log logs HTTP errors. The level of error logging that occurs is dependent on the value selected for the Error log level field.
The NCSA access log contains a record of all inbound client requests that the HTTP transport channel handles. All of the messages contained in these logs are in NCSA format.
After you have configured the HTTP error log and the NCSA access logs, make sure the Enable NCSA access logging field is selected for the HTTP channels for which you want logging to take place. To view the settings for an HTTP channel, click Servers > Application Servers > server > Web Container Transport Chains > HTTP Inbound Channel.
