Debug Listener

Question

I am trying to use the sample debug listner available with JIRA Installation.

I added the listener to my installation by adding the following class

com.atlassian.jira.event.listeners.DebugListener.

However, the example listeners don't ouput any logging for me. The examples talk about System.out and System.err.

However, when I make any changes to any issue it does not generate any output log for me.

Please advise.

Thanks.

Hope it will help.

JIRA Installation Directory

Where are the application server logs?

As I see from the link mentioned by you, Commons Logging approach is used. In case of JIRA this particularly means that log4j is used for logging output. This can be also helpful

I am not sure which log to look in. I do not see any logs generated with names cataline.* in my installation.

I am running JIRA on windows 7.

I also tried writting JIRA Event Listener, following the instaruction on

Same problem don't know where to look for the log file.

Thanks.

Which log are you looking in? What OS are you running jira on? System.out goes to /logs/catalina.out, or sometimes to catalina.. Have you checked those?
