B Troubleshooting Web Server
B-2
This section provides three categories of troubleshooting information:
•General Troubleshooting
•Additional Troubleshooting for Windows NT
•Additional Troubleshooting for Solaris and Linux
General Troubleshooting
This information is relevant to all operating systems that support the
MATLAB Web Server.
Event and Error Logging
The MATLAB Web Server provides a logging facility that may be useful in
diagnosing operational problems. This facility supplements capabilities such
as the Windows NT Event Viewer provided by the operating system. Logs may
record all events or error events only.
Logging can be controlled using various logging options. Logging options may
be set in the
matlabserver.conf file or specified on the command line. Any
option you specify on the command line overrides the value found in
matlabserver.conf.
Use the
matlabserver command on Windows NT and the webconf and
webstart scripts on Solaris and Linux to set these options.
Table B-1: matlabserver Logging Options
Option Purpose
-f [log_filename]
Event log file. Required when logging to a
file. File content determined by
-v setting.
(File logging is inefficient. Use when
debugging only.)
-l [errorlog_filename]
(Solaris and Linux only). Error log file.
Default is
matlabserver_error.log in
current directory. On Windows NT use the
Event Viewer to see a list of error events.
