Introduction to Abiquo logs
Abiquo recommends that customers first consult the Event logs in Events view in the Abiquo UI.
By default, you can find all of the logs for the Abiquo services in the /opt/abiquo/tomcat/logs folder.
The Abiquo platform automatically archives the logs by date. It renames the existing log to include the creation date (application-year-month-day.log) and creates a new log at 00 hours the next day.
catalina.out - Tomcat server
This log is the general log of Tomcat instance on each Tomcat server.
The Tomcat Catalina log file is /opt/abiquo/tomcat/logs/catalina.out
This is the best log to start troubleshooting because it gives you a summary view of all the web apps running on the Tomcat Server (for API or RS) and it contains the output from all parts of the platform at the same time.
But for performance reasons, this log has a shorter version of the events than the other logs. The Catalina.out log includes the Events View messages, which include the following.
Messages | See messages in Catalina.out and Events view |
Actions | See Events view in the actions table section and the Events table |
Severity codes | See Events view in the severity table section and the Events table |
Catalina is the servlet container for Tomcat, which implements the Java specifications for servlet and Java Server Pages or JSP.
health.log - health check service
To ensure the best performance of all the components, Abiquo includes a health check for the Remote Services from each datacenter.
The health check log can be found at /opt/abiquo/tomcat/logs/health.log
Date and time | Type | Process information | Remote service ________________________ | Datacenter |
|---|---|---|---|---|
2011-10-05 02:02:25,863 | DEBUG | c.a.a.h.RemoteServicesCheck (RemoteServicesCheck.java:98) | Checking Remote Service (Storage Manager) of | datacenter (1) |
localhost.yyyy-mm-dd.log
The localhost log contains the errors for events between Tomcat's local host and the web applications.
We do not recommend these logs for troubleshooting because have less detail than the other specific logs.
api.log - Abiquo API
The API log file is /opt/abiquo/tomcat/logs/api.log
The API log contains API messages. You can find more Information API errors in the Developer's Guide under Basic behaviors and in the API Error Code List.
server.log - Abiquo server
The server log file is at /opt/abiquo/tomcat/logs/server.log
This is mainly a record of events between the Abiquo environment and the database.
It includes the events that the platform will display in Events View, and store in the MySQL database.

RabbitMQ log
By default the RabbitMQ logs are found at: /var/log/rabbitmq.
Redis
By default Redis logs are found at: /var/log/redis and Redis is configured in verbose mode, which can generate very large log files of up to 10 GB.
MariaDB
By default the MariaDB log is found at: /var/lib/mysql/hostname.err.
Messages in Catalina.out and Events view
The tracer messages are found in the Catalina.out log file and in Events View. The tracer messages are documented in the Events view pages in the Tracer column and ordered by the events that may produce the messages.
These messages are targeted to different users and in Events view, they will only be displayed for users with privileges to view the message for an event. For convenience, in the documentation, the event messages are divided by the default roles: Cloud Admin can see all the messages, and Enterprise Admin and user can see those their privileges allow.
Cloud Admin messages: Events table
The variables in the messages that represent entity names and numbers have been replaced with tokens (e.g. APPLICATION_NAME). At times the tracers may also be accompanied by another another error message code - usually from the API Error Code List, which is documented for users: User interface messages and developers: API Error Code List
