Logging Settings page

You use the Logging Settings page of the Administrator to change ColdFusion MX logging options. The following table describes the settings:

Setting	Description
Log directory*	Directory to which error log files are written.
Maximum file size (kb)	Set the maximum file size for log files. Once a file hits this size, it will be automatically archived.
Maximum number of archives	Set the maximum number of log archives to create. After reaching this limit, files will be deleted in order of oldest to newest.
Log slow pages taking longer than [n] seconds	Log the names of pages that take longer than the specified interval to process. Logging slow pages can help you diagnose potential problems or bottlenecks in your ColdFusion applications. Entries are written to server.log.
Log all CORBA calls	Log all CORBA calls.
Enable logging for scheduled tasks	Log ColdFusion Executive task scheduling.

Comments are no longer accepted for ColdFusion MX 6.1. ColdFusion 8 is the current version.

What happened to all the information that was available in CF 5.0's log files? I remember seeing IP address, user agent, etc. I found this information very useful when analyzing the log files.

This information duplicates what web servers put in their log files.

You can look in C:\WINNT\system32ogfiles\w3svc1\exyymmdd.log for iis,

or in apache_root/logs/access_log for apache

yes, but it was nice having all the information in one place. also, i used to be able to see deleted error information regarding sql statements. if an insert query failel it displayed the query in the log just like it does on the browser, making it easy to see what values were passed to the query if any. all i see now is an error that states there was a problem with the query.
