Server Log

The Server Log tab in the Dashboard is a place to view the latest entries that have been written to the server logs. These entries mirror what gets written to the logs folder in the installation directory. For additional information, see Installation Directory.

The entries shown in the Server Log tab follow a standard format:

• The current time stamp. Example: [2017-04-10 08:31:50,938]
• The severity level of the log entry: OFF, FATAL, ERROR, WARN, INFO, DEBUG, TRACE, ALL
• The category/class name and line number, if available. Example: com.mirth.connect.server.Mirth:446):
• The actual log message.

For long messages, the value shown in the table will be truncated. To show the entire message for these entries, double-click the row.

By default a maximum of 99 entries are shown at once in the Server Log tab. Newly received entries will cause the oldest entries to automatically be removed. If you want to reduce the number of log entries that may be shown at one time:

• Edit the Log Size field on the bottom-right side of the window.
• Select the check icon.
  

To clear the logs shown in your Administrator session, select the X button in the bottom-left.

To start/pause the logs from being updated in your Administrator session, select the start/pause button on the bottom-left side of the window. While the Server Log tab is paused, new entries will not be pulled from the server. This allows you to analyze a particular log entry without fear of it being evicted from your session due to the max log size.
