To enable logging in HSQLDB, you need to configure logging-related properties in the hsqldb.properties file. Here's how you can do it:
1. Open the hsqldb.properties File :
* Locate the hsqldb.properties file in your HSQLDB installation directory. If it doesn't exist, you can create a new file with this name in the directory where you want to store it.
2. Configure Logging Properties :Add or modify the logging-related properties in the
hsqldb.properties file according to your logging requirements. Some common logging properties include:
* server.log : Set this property to the path where you want to store the server log file. For example :
server.log=./logs/hsqldb.log
* server.trace : Set this property to true to enable trace logging, which includes additional diagnostic information. For example :
* server.remote_open : Set this property to true to log information about remote database connections. For example :
3. Save the File :
* Save the changes to the hsqldb.properties file after configuring the logging properties.
4. Restart the HSQLDB Server :
* If the HSQLDB server is running, restart it to apply the changes to the logging configuration.
* If you're using HSQLDB in embedded mode, you'll need to restart your application or reload the database to apply the changes.
After enabling logging and configuring the logging properties, HSQLDB will start logging information according to the specified settings. You can check the log file specified in the
server.log property to view the logged information, including server startup messages, SQL statements, and other diagnostic messages.
Adjust the logging properties as needed to control the verbosity of the logs and manage log files based on your logging requirements and preferences.
