3 Logging

You can set up logging for the Entrust Rest API connector component, which may provide additional information if the error details from the response from the Entrust CA Gateway does not provide enough information to diagnose your issues.

To set up logging for the component:

  1. Set the following in the application server's registry:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Intercede\Edefice\Trace

    If the Trace key does not exist, you must create it.

  2. In the Trace key, create a DWORD value called EntrustRestConnector. Set the value to 1 to enable logging, and 0 to disable logging.

  3. In the Trace key, create a key called EntrustRestConnector. Within this key, create a string value called Location and set this to the full path of the file to which you want to send the log information.

    Note: You must ensure that the MyID named COM user has the necessary permissions to create and write to the log file. You can create a file then give the user write permissions if you prefer not to give the user create permissions.

Important: Disable the logging when you have completed diagnosing the issues, as the log file may become very large.
