Use caution if you modify the configuration settings for the smartphone server since incorrect set-
tings can have unforeseen side effects.
Serious problems may occur if you modify the configuration file incorrectly. Nuance cannot guar-

configuration file at your own risk.
Set message logging
In the DNSSPServer.exe.config file, in the <switches> section, set the value parameter for the Serv-
iceDebugLevel option to one of the following values:
Message type Value
No tracing "Off"
Fatal error or application crash "Critical"
Recoverable error "Error"
Non-critical problem "Warning"
Informational message "Information"
Debugging trace "Verbose"
For example:
<add name="ServiceDebugLevel" value="Information" />
Viewing log information
Each time the smartphone server starts, the server creates a tracing / error log file (spserver.log) in
the current Windows user’s TEMP directory. You can view this file when trouble shooting prob-
lems with the smartphone server.
You can also view logging information in real-time by performing the following steps:
1. Stop Dragon (or the dnsspserver.exe process)
2. Run the smartphone server manually in debug mode: In a command prompt, navigate to the
directory that stores the dnsspserver.exe file. Type “dnsspserver /debug".
3. Restart Dragon.
Set the logging of network statistics
You can enable the gathering and logging of network statistics data. The data is placed in the
SpServer.log and the Dragon.log.
In the DNSSPServer.exe.config file, in the <appSettings> section, set the value parameter for the
DNSNetMonitoring option to one of the following values:
