By default, Adeptia Connect stores and displays the log messages in standard format. However, it also gives you the flexibility to log and display the messages in popular format like JSON. To set your preference for output in JSON format, you need to follow the steps below:

1. Go to …<ConnectServerInstallFolder>\AdeptiaServer\ServerKernel\etc location.
2. Open log4J-2.xml file.

3. Comment out the code as shown below:

   Code Block
   theme Midnight
   <!-- <Console name="console" target="SYSTEM_OUT"> <PatternLayout pattern="${sys:log4j.appender.console.layout.ConversionPattern}"/> </Console>-->

4. Insert the code given below inside the <Appenders>...</Appenders> tags in the file:

   Code Block
   theme Midnight
   <RollingFile name="console" fileName="${sys:abpm.kernelout.file.location}/${sys:log4j.appender.file.File}" filePattern ="${sys:abpm.kernelout.file.location}/${custom:log4j.appender.file.File}-%d{yyyy-MM-dd}-%i.log"> <JSONLayout compact="true" eventEol="true"/> <Policies> <SizeBasedTriggeringPolicy size="${sys:log4j.appender.retry.file.MaxFileSize}" /> </Policies> <DefaultRolloverStrategy max="${sys:log4j.appender.retry.file.MaxBackupIndex}"/> </RollingFile>

5. Save the file.

Setting this preference creates two new files 'KernelSystem.log' and 'WebrunnerSystem.log' which contain the logs in JSON format.  These files contain the log messages written by log4j 2.
