Siebel: client-side logging for Siebel Business applications using the SIEBEL_LOG_EVENTS environment variable

Client side logging can be enabled to capture detailed logs for the Siebel Web server/SWSE when it is installed and configured on a Windows machine.
Starting from Siebel 6.x and later versions, you can specify the Environment variable to setup client side logging. This is applicable to Siebel dedicated client and Siebel mobile client.

Windows XP

  2. Click the Advance tab, and then click Environment Variables.
  3. In the User variables section, create a new environment variable and enter the below values
Variable Name = SIEBEL_LOG_EVENTS
Variable Value =
event level (event level can be values 0 through 5)
    4. Launch the Siebel client application and the new setting will become effective.






Windows  7
  1. Choose Start > Control Panel > System > Advanced System Setting
  2. On the System Properties, select the advanced tab and then click Environment variables.
  3. In the User variables section, create a new environment variable and enter the below values

Variable Value =
event level (event level can be values 0 through 5)

    4. Launch the Siebel client application and the new setting will become effective.

By default the logs will get generated in <ClientRootDir>\log directory.
If you want to get the logs generated in a different folder, then you can use the SIEBEL_LOG_DIR Environment variable.
