Question
How do I find my log4j.properties file and my IIQ log files?
Answer
To find your log4j.properties file and IIQ log files, you will need to be logged in as a user with administrator rights. Please follow these steps to find both files.
1. Log in as an administrator and navigate to the debug menu of IIQ.
2. Hover over "Debug" and select the "Logging" menu.
3. You will be taken to this page which shows the path to your log4j.properties file.
4. Navigate to your log4j.properties file.
5. Here you will find the following path under log4j.appender.file.File=
6. This is the location of your IIQ log file. Please note that if this line is commented out or no file path is specified, IIQ will be logging to your application server log.

Hello Martin,
For versions 7.0 and newer you will need to do the following to get to the logging details.
> Please navigate to your debug page
> In the top right there is a "wrench" icon
> Once clicked you will see the "logging" link
> Clicking that link will display the file path to your log4j.properties file
(please see the screenshot attached)
