Introduction

This article describes, how to configure the logs for the Authentication service. This includes the activation of the logs and how to change the path of the log files.

Activate logs

Step 1 -

...

Navigate to the web.config file

You have to navigate to the follwoing path and open the web.config file: "Authentication Service: C:\ProgramData\itsense\AuthenticationService_900000

Step 2 - Make changes in the web.config file

Set the parameter “stdoutLogEnabled“ on “true“ in the web.config file.

Code Block
stdoutLogEnabled="true"

Step 3 - Read your logs

Now the Authentication sevice is writing the logs in the specified path in the web.config file.

Code Block
stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" />

Change path of the log-files

Step 1 - Create new folders

For this example, create a new folder in any path you want. You can name the folder as you want. Create a subfolder in the just created folder, which you name AuthenticationService_900000. Create again a subfolder in AuthenticationService_900000, which you name logs.

Step 2 - Change the configuration of the web.config file

Open the Server, where the CoreOne Suite Authentication Service is running on. Navigate to the path: C:\ProgramData\itsense\AuthenticationService_900000. Now open the “WebWeb.config” config file in Notepad, Notepad++ or an other text edit program. In this file you have to change the path for the log - files. The new path must be exactly the same as you created in step one.

Change the path which is marked on the image below into the new path where you want to safe your log-files.

...

for the log file at “ stdoutLogFile=”.\logs\stdout” />

Code Block
languagenone
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
        <system.webServer>
            <handlers>
                <add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModule" resourceType="Unspecified"/>
            </handlers>
            <aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments='"C:\Program Files\ITSENSE AG\Authentication service\Server\iTsense.CoreLogin2.Server.dll" -db moving_appcustomer_900000 -appCustomer 900000' stdoutLogEnabled="true" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" />
        </system.webServer >
    </location>
</configuration>

Step 3 - Change the configuration of the CoreLogin_Log4Net.config file

Stay on the server, where the Authentication Service is running. Navigate to the the file “CoreLogin_Log4Net.config”. This file is located here: C:\ProgrammData\itsense\configuration. Now open the “WebCoreLogin_Log4Net.config” config file in Notepad, Notepad++ or an other text edit program.

Change the red marked path in the image below into the new path you have created in step one.

...

for the log file at those two lines:

Code Block
<file value=”path” />
Code Block
<file value=”path” />

Step 4 - Change Privileges of the created folder

Open the properties of the main folder which you have created in step one. In this case it is the folder “D:\itsense“. Add the User which starts the App Service of the CoreOne Suite and give him all privileges.
You can proof which User needs to have the privileges. Just start the application “Services“ an search for CoreOne Suite - Core. The User which is deposit as “Log On As“ is the user which has to get all the privileges to the new folder. If you won’t do that the User can’t write in to the folder an you won’t have your log-files.
