R12: HOW TO GET THE FND DEBUG LOG FOR ON-LINE PROCESSES AND

FOR CONCURRENT REQUESTS

Steps for On-Line processes
1) From a System Administrator responsibility
Navigation path: Profile -> System

a) Set the following profile option at SITE level:
FND: Diagnostics -> Yes

b) Set the following profile options at USER level:
FND: Debug Log Module -> %
FND: Debug Log Enabled -> Yes
FND: Debug Log Level -> Statement

2) Run the following query to get the starting log sequence(seq1)
--- ---
SELECT MAX(log_sequence)
FROM FND_LOG_MESSAGES;
--- ---

3) Go to the Payables responsibility
Open the involved form and reproduce the error.

4) Run the following query again to get the finishing log sequence(seq2)
--- ---
SELECT MAX(log_sequence)
FROM FND_LOG_MESSAGES;
--- ---

5) Run the following query to generate the log file:
--- ---
SELECT module, message_text message
FROM fnd_log_messages
WHERE log_sequence between &seq1 and &seq2
ORDER BY log_sequence;
--- ---

6) Provide the results in an EXCEL spreadsheet for readability.


Steps for Concurrent Request
1) From a System Administrator responsibility
Navigation path: Profile -> System

a) Set the following profile option at SITE level:
FND: Diagnostics -> Yes

b) Set the following profile options at USER level:
FND: Debug Log Module -> %
FND: Debug Log Enabled -> Yes
FND: Debug Log Level -> Statement

2) Run the concurrent request.

3) Upload the log and output files which can be found in the following UNIX directories:
cd $<product>_TOP/log
cd $<product>_TOP/out
Both files can be found using the request_id.

4) Upload the spool file of the following script in an EXCEL spreadsheet for readability:
--- --- ---
SELECT LOG.message_text message
FROM FND_LOG_MESSAGES LOG,
FND_LOG_TRANSACTION_CONTEXT CON
WHERE CON.TRANSACTION_ID = '&con_request_id'
AND CON.TRANSACTION_TYPE = 'REQUEST'
AND CON.TRANSACTION_CONTEXT_ID = LOG.TRANSACTION_CONTEXT_ID
ORDER BY LOG.LOG_SEQUENCE;
