PROBLEM:   intermittent errors with customer’s Print Agent

RECREATED IN CORE:  No.  Only occurs at customer’s site

RECREATED IN CUSTOMER’S ENVIRONMENT:  yes, but at unpredictable intervals (hence the request for additional debugging help)

BUSINESS IMPACT:  intermittent need for repeating print job requests by IFS users and associated inconvenience to users

IMPORTANCE:  2-High 

Case ID: G2225593-B 

REQUEST FROM R&D:  Is it possible to provide a “debugger version” of Print Agent to customers which might display additional information upon print job errors?

@Shanaka Tennakoon, please look into this post.  I originally tried to post this back on Aug. 4th, 2021 but did it incorrectly.  Our customer has been awaiting our reply since that date.


Hi @ChanakaAmarasekara ,

 

Can we increase the debug level for app9 print agent?

Hi @Eugene Wager 

 

how many logical printers mapped to this customer print agent? 

check if EXECUTION_MODE set to InParallel for BATCH2 queue in setup ifs connect window?


Hi,

The PA use the normal IFS logger, by default the logging level is debug. This is set in the ifs-logging.properties file. As in the logger, you can set this to info, error, trace or debug.

Regards,

Chanaka


as an example

 

 


Shanaka,

This customer has responded with the following pieces of information to your questions, which I forwarded to them:

  • Their copy of ifs-logging.properties is identical to the one you showed above
  • They have 56 printers mapped / listed in their PA config file
  • Execution mode for BATCH2 connector = InSequence

FYI,

Eugene


Hi @Eugene Wager 

 

make the BATCH2  EXECUTION_MODE=InParallel and see if the issue resolved. if not this need  to be investigate further 

 

Best Regards,

Shanaka
