Check log files

You can inspect log files to ensure that the WebLogic Remote Console is functioning correctly.

Front end

To view the log file for issues related to the front end of the WebLogic Remote Console:

Desktop application

Open View > Toggle Developer Tools and select the Console tab.

Browser application

In the browser tab with WebLogic Remote Console, open the Developer Tools and select the Console tab.

Back end

To view the log file for issues related to the back end of the WebLogic Remote Console:

Desktop application

Open the out.log file in a text editor. The out.log file is located in:

  • Linux: $HOME/.config/weblogic-remote-console/out.log
  • macOS: /Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/weblogic-remote-console/out.log
  • Windows: C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\weblogic-remote-console\out.log

out.log maintains log entries for the current session of the WebLogic Remote Console. Once you close your current session, those log entries are moved to out-1.log (in the same folder as out.log). out-1.log only keeps a copy of the most recently ended session’s log entries, not all previous sessions.

This feature is not supported in the browser application.

If you want to change the default logging configuration for back end log files, see Use an alternative logging configuration file.
