  • Goal

    How to review the information in the log files for Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) 11g version.

    Fix

    You can check the different log files in the Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) 11.1.1.x version.

    The right way to check them is using the Enterprise Manager (EM) Console page but you can also review directly the files in the hard

    disk.

    a) EM Console. Login to the URL

    http://server.domain:7001/em

    and navigate to:

    Fam_bifoundation_domain-Business Intelligence-coreapplications-Diagnostics-Log Messages

    These are all the available files:

    Presentation Services Log

    Server Log

    Scheduler Log

    JavaHost Log

    Cluster Controller Log

    Action Services Log

    Security Services Log

    Administrator Services Log

    *************************************************************************

    To check the files directly, you can use the following:

    Logs files in detail:

    -------------------------------x-------------------------------

    1) Admin Server logs.

    AdminServer-diagnostic.log

    Directory:

    $MIDDLEWARE_HOME/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/servers/AdminServer/logs

    or

    $DOMAIN_HOME/servers/AdminServer/logs

    Example:

    C:\OBIEE_11G\user_projects\domains\bifoundation_domain\servers\AdminServer\logs

    If there is no Managed Server (for instance, you did Simple Install), you should review these log files:

    access.log

    AdminServer.log

    Domain log file:

    bifoundation_domain.log

    4.1) BI Server log files.

    $MIDDLEWARE_HOME/instances/instance2/diagnostics/logs/OracleBIServerComponent/coreapplication_obis1

    Example:

    C:\OBIEE_11g\instances\instance2\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1

    To confirm the above path, review the 'component-logs.xml' file, these lines to see if the default path has changed:

    4.1.6) Repository log.

    /OracleBIServerComponent/coreapplication_obis1/repository

    4.1.7) System logging level (for BISystem user).

    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/bi.1111/e10540/planning.htm#BIEMG398

    Using Administration Tool, in Tools->Options->Repository->System Logging Level to set the log level.

    This option determines the default query logging level for the internal BISystem user. The BISystem user owns the Oracle BI Server

    system processes and is not exposed in any user interface.

    A query logging level of 0 (the default) means no logging. Set this logging

    level to 2 to enable query logging for internal system processes like event

    polling and initialization blocks.

    See this link to see all the Query Logging Levels

    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/bi.1111/e10541/logging.htm#BIESG181

    4.1.8) Usage Tracking (Only if redirected to logs).

    NQAcct.yyyymmdd.hhmmss.log

    STORAGE_DIRECTORY parameter in the Usage Tracking section of the

    NQSConfig.INI file determines the location of usage tracking log files

    Example:

    C:\OBIEE_11G\instances\instance2\bifoundation\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1\repository\SampleAppLite.rpd.Log
