Configuring database connection and debugging options 41
The location of the debugging information or the type of debugging data shown varies,
depending on the options that you enable on the Debugging page in the ColdFusion
Administrator. In the following example, the debugging output includes general
information about the ColdFusion server, the execution time of the application, and
variable information.
If you are using a development server to build the sample application in Part II of this
book, you can enable some of these settings to help debug any unexpected problems.
Use the following steps to enable debugging options in the ColdFusion Administrator.
To enable debugging options:
1 In the ColdFusion Administrator, select Debugging and Logging > Debugging.
A list of debugging options appear on the Debugging Settings page.
2 Select the Enable Debugging check box.
When you select this option, the debugging service is enabled for all options already
selected on the page.
3 On Debugging Settings page, view the description of each option that is enabled. If
you do not want to append debugging information for a specific option, clear the
check box.
