Email logs

Hi,
where are the logs for the email notification facility. I assuming that the Jazz Team Server uses its own internal smtp client and not the os (linux) mta so doesn't log into the /var/log/mail* files (because they are empty).

I asking because it seems very hit and miss when the emails are sent, so would like to isolate the problem.

Cheers,

Michael

Did you see my earlier response? Do you have any mail related failures
in the catalina.out (assuming you are running Tomcat)?

Apologies, forgot I had already posted a message!!

I have looked in catalina.out and can see error messages for the email that have failed to due to my incorrect setup.

However, I can't see any messages for success email sends, it is these I wish to see to get the timings.

cheers,

It is possible to debug when the server sends mail, but you need to
adjust your log4j.properties file in the jazz/server directory and
restart your server. You can add the line

log4j.logger.com.ibm.team.repository=DEBUG

To the file to turn on more verbose logging. Unfortunately, it turns on
a *lot* more verbose logging and you will not want to run with that
setting for very long. When mail is sent you should see a message
"E-mail successfully sent." after it is sent.
