Debug Settings

This page lets you enable different types of error tracing. Tracing sends information to the portal's debugging tools, allowing you to troubleshoot problems by analyzing error logs. For information on how to set up and use the debugging tools, see the Administrator Guide for Oracle WebCenter Interaction (available on the Oracle Technology Network at http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/bea.html).

Select whether to enable the following types of tracing:

• Under Debugging Configuration, select whether to enable HTTP request and HTTP response tracing.

• Under User Selection, select whether to enable tracing for a specific user. Otherwise, tracing is on for all users. To select a specific user, click Browse, select the user, and click OK.
  
  Note: This setting is only available for authentication Web services, content Web services, portlet Web services, and search Web services.

• Under Portlet Selection, select whether to enable tracing for a specific portlet associated with this Web service. To select a specific portlet, click Browse, select the portlet, and click OK.
