No UWL Logs are writing

Question

Hi,
have anybody an idea how I could change the configuration for the uwl logs.
Normally the logs should be in the directory /usr/sap/<SID> JCXX/j2ee/cluster/server0/log/applications/sap.pom/uwl
But in both server directories (2 have server0 und server1) are the uwl logs old.
ls -tlr
total 46344
-rw-rr   1 pepadm     sapsys     10000391 Aug  6  2007 uwl_defaultLog.0.log
-rw-rr   1 pepadm     sapsys     10000417 Sep  5  2007 uwl_defaultLog.1.log
-rw-rr   1 pepadm     sapsys     3697415 Sep  1 11:51 uwl_defaultLog.2.log
I change the loglevel in der Visualadmin from error to all but nothings happens.
The following steps will lead you to activate UWL log.
1) Open the services tree in Visual Administrator.
2) Go to u201CLog Configuratoru201D service.
3) On the u201CRuntimeu201D tab, in the right-hand pane, select the u201CLocationsu201D sub-tab. Look at the u201CLog Controllersu201D tree.
4) Expand to: ROOT LOCATION/com/sap/netweaver/bc/uwl.
5) Click u201Cuwlu201D.
6) Change the severity to level u201CAllu201D.
7) Click the u201CCopy severity to subtreeu201D button to update the change to all subcomponents.
8 ) Click the u201CApplyu201D button to save changes.
The UWL log files are located in the following directory: /usr/sap//JC/j2ee/cluster/server/log/applications/sap.com/uwl
Did anybody has an idea?

Hi,
It is advisable to reset the severity level back to default after reproducing the issue as the increased information been logged in the default trace files will fill them up and may lead to performance issues. You should check the following wiki which contains helpful information on logging levels etc
