Understanding logging
If a request succeeds, a transaction success message is written to the QuarkXPress Server
transaction log file. This message includes the transaction ID, date, time, request type,
project name, response type, response size in bytes, and client IP address. For example:
07/03/2011 14:37:47 - RequestURI = /xml/sample.qxp TransactionUUID =
afb6f457-80ae-4d5d-a434-ce9f3e089761 Client = 10.91.30.216 Type = text/xml
Size = 4846
If an alert is displayed, an error message is written to the QuarkXPress Server transaction
log file. The transaction entry contains the date and time of the request, the error code,
and the error message. The following is a sample of an error log transaction entry:
09/03/2011 13:54:33 - RequestURI = /sample.qcd TransactionUUID =
dffc3a7e-11fd-4d97-b3fe-8f2129353d58 Client = 10.91.30.216 Error #10120 -

The "QuarkXPress Server Log.log" file also contains system-level log information. For
example, if a request makes a renderer stop working, you can figure out which request it
was using the transaction ID and the transaction log.
