ADMINISTERING
To set up the Domino® Web server log, you must enable logging (by default, logging is disabled).
About this task
You can restrict the information logged to the Domino Web server log to analyze log file results. Some information may increase the size of the log file without providing meaningful information -- requests for graphics or icons, for example, so you may want to exclude that type of information from the log. Domino creates the Web server log database when the HTTP task starts after you enable logging to DOMLOG.NSF.
Procedure
1. From the Domino Administrator, click the Configuration tab.
2. Open the Server document for the Web server.
3. Click the Internet Protocols -> HTTP tab.
4. Under Enable Logging To, select Enabled for the Domlog.nsf field.
5. Optional: Under Exclude From Logging, complete these fields to exclude certain types of information from the log file:
Note: To enter DNS names in this field, you must first enable the DNS Lookup setting in the HTTP Server section of the Server document. Otherwise, you can enter only IP addresses in this field. Enabling this setting will impact performance.
