IBM Domino: How to enable HTTP Request logging in Domino

Technote (FAQ)


Question

How do you enable HTTP request logging when using a Lotus® Domino® Web server? You want a record of all requests sent by Web browsers to the Domino server to use for troubleshooting.

Answer

Below is a short guide to turning on request logging that provides the basic logging level. More verbose logging can be enabled by following the instructions in "Overview of HTTP Request Logs" (#7003598).
Important: HTTP request logging should be used only for troubleshooting specific issues, and usually at the direction of and with assistance from IBM Support. Do not use request logging for other purposes, such as administrative reasons. Because these log files grow in size over time, you should not leave this setting enabled for long periods or you will exhaust the available drive space.

To enable logging of HTTP requests for a Domino server for the current HTTP session only, enter the following command on the server console:
    "tell HTTP debug thread on"

When you restart the HTTP task, requests are no longer logged. You can also end request logging by entering the following command on the server console:
    "tell HTTP debug thread off" 
To enable request logging for more than one HTTP session, add the following line to the notes.ini file:
    HTTPEnableThreadDebug=1 (for the default level)

Domino 6 and later servers create htthr*.log files in the IBM_TECHNICAL_SUPPORT directory. (Domino R5 servers write REQ*.LOG files to the Domino program directory for Win32 platforms or to the Domino Data directory on UNIX platforms.)

Supporting Information:

Be aware that Request Log files grow in size. You should periodically move or delete the files, at least once a day. Refer to "How to Manage Size of HTTP Request Log Files" (#1098527) for more information. Also, if you restart the server or HTTP task, you should delete or move the existing log files because new ones will be created.
