Presentation Services Logsources in OBIEE 12c

Published Jun 1, 2016 by in Sawserver, Logging, Diagnostics at https://preview.rmoff.net/2016/06/01/presentation-services-logsources-in-obiee-12c/

Presentation Services can provide some very detailed logs, useful for troubleshooting, performance tracing, and general poking around. See here for details.

There’s no bi-init.sh in 12c, so need to set up the LD_LIBRARY_PATH ourselves:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/app/oracle/biee/bi/bifoundation/web/bin/:/app/oracle/biee/bi/lib/:/app/oracle/biee/lib/:/app/oracle/biee/bi/bifoundation/odbc/lib/

Run sawserver with flag to list all log sources

/app/oracle/biee/bi/bifoundation/web/bin/sawserver -logsources > saw_logsources_12.2.1.txt
