  • Hi, we're using version 4.1.0 and we'd like to be able to enabled Debug/Trace lvl logging for the plugin since we're encountering an issue when moving files to a different location on the filesystem. We've modified appian_log4j.properties with the following entries, but still see no logs in tomcat-stdOut.log:

    log4j.rootLogger=ERROR, CONSOLE, METRICS log4j.logger.com.appiancorp.a2.process.runtime.activities.sftp=DEBUG log4j.logger.com.appiancorp.ps.plugins.filetransfer.sftp=DEBUG log4j.properties.com.appiancorp.ps.plugins.filetransfer.sftp.SendFileOverSFTP=DEBUG

    Can you please let me know the precise entries that we should put in log4.properties file in order to get enhanced logging for the plugin?
