  • 1.  MQ Web logs on Linux

    Posted Tue November 28, 2023 08:34 AM

    Is there a way to increase the number of messages log and console log files on MQ Web for Linux.

    I seems to only have 1 historical log for each of the above

    Hi Emile,

    Take a look here: Configuring logging. You want maxTraceFileSize and maxTraceFiles.

    Regards, Matt.

    Hi Matthew,

    I saw that, but it says TRACE files, would it refer to the messages.log nd console.log files?

    Hi Emile,


    maxTraceFileSize and maxTraceFiles affect the messages.log file it doesn't affect the console.log. But normally messages.log is all you need anyway. I tried changing the values and it worked for me.

    Regards, Matt.

    Hi Emile,

    I have raised an internal ticket to make the docs for this clearer.

    Regards, Matt.
