Running groovy scripts - where does the log output go?

I am currently working to get LDAP working in my ReportServer DEV environment. That consists of running 2 groovy scripts ldapimport.groovy and hookldappam.groovy.  In those scripts there is logger.log lines to output verbiage to the log and System.println.out lines.  Where does that output go?  I looked in the logs folder under ..../apache-tomcat and cannot find anything in the logs there?

Is there a log setting somewhere that I need to change or are these logs that get updated from groovy script located somewhere else?

It would be helpful to know for debugging purposes.  Thanks.

Hi matthewbarlett,

you can test the logger with the following script:

import java.util.logging.Level;
import java.util.logging.Logger;
  
logger = Logger.getLogger(getClass().getName());
LOG_PREFIX = "getlogginginfo "; // optional
  
logger.log(Level.SEVERE, LOG_PREFIX + "=== START getLoggingInfo =========\n");
tout.println("=== START getLoggingInfo =========");
  
      logger.log(Level.ALL, LOG_PREFIX + "ALL Message!");
      logger.log(Level.CONFIG, LOG_PREFIX + "CONFIG Message!");
      logger.log(Level.FINE, LOG_PREFIX + "FINE Message!");
      logger.log(Level.FINER, LOG_PREFIX + "FINER Message!");
      logger.log(Level.FINEST, LOG_PREFIX + "FINEST Message!");
      logger.log(Level.INFO, LOG_PREFIX + "INFO Message!");
      logger.log(Level.WARNING, LOG_PREFIX + "WARN Message!");
      logger.log(Level.SEVERE, LOG_PREFIX + "SEVERE Message!");
       
  
tout.println("=== END getLoggingInfo =========");
logger.log(Level.SEVERE, LOG_PREFIX + "=== END getLoggingInfo =========");

In a standard bitnami installation, you can change the following file: c:\bitnami\reportserverenterprise-version\apps\reportserver\reportserver-conf\logging-rs.properties

to

.level = FINEST
net.datenwerke.level = INFO

then you should see in the reportserver logs (look in your tomcat/logs directory) something similar to:

14-Jun-2018 13:49:22.690 SCHWERWIEGEND [scriptExec-1] java_util_logging_Logger$log$0.call getlogginginfo === START getLoggingInfo =========

Re: Running groovy scripts - where does the log output go?

Hi Eduardo,

When I try

import java.util.logging.Level;

I get an unable to resolve class error:

The report could not be executed: net.datenwerke.rs.scripting.service.scripting.exceptions.ScriptEngineException: javax.script.ScriptException: org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:
Script94.groovy: 5: unable to resolve class java.util.logging.level
@ line 5, column 1.
import java.util.logging.level
^

1 error

What could be the issue?

Regards,
Johann

Re: Running groovy scripts - where does the log output go?

Just to clarify, are we supposed to see the `tout` output in the logs as well? I am not able to find it in my logs but I do see

org.codehaud...doInvoke logger.groovy SEVERE-level message

Hi Johann,

no, tout (terminal out) is only printed into the terminal.
