Hello all,
Where (file system) can we find the errors and exceptions thrown (if they are not caught) in message flows in a windows system. I know that we can read them through event viewer, but is there any folder where all these errors/logs are stored?
Thanks,
Basha.

According to the documentation, system-related error events are recorded in the System Log (eventvwr).

JT,

1. Can we use any other Java utility to read the system log.

2. Is it readable ?

3. How can we differentiate the Broker errors from other windows errors in the system log?


Your views are appreciated.

Thanks,
Basha.

basha,

I don't think your questions are quite revelant, since the log that WBIMB uses to report its system errors is the System log in the Windows Event Viewer, not the file system. Those entries are obviously in readable-format. Click on the text 'documentation' in my previous post for details.

I believe the Source column will indentify the system component that produced the entry (i.e. BIBv500).

Maybe these questions should be asked in a Microsoft centric forum.

Cheers,

I know there are functions provided to write these messages into EventLog, so I am assuming that there would be functions to read them also.

In Java?

Last time I had to do either, I had to use JNI. But that was a few years ago.

Hi,

There is something about reading the event log here:
