Log Files

There are many log files in sul-pub/current/log. Except for the runner logs, these logfiles are not "task-oriented". Below is a brief description of them:

Useful logs for 3.x release

• cap.log contain logging for the CapAuthorsPoller and CapHttpClient classes.
• production.log is the Rails logger. This is a catch-all log and includes logging from our Rails API.
• pubmed.log contain logging for the PubmedHarvester and PubmedClient classes.
• web_of_science.log contains logging for the Web of Science harvester and classes.
• wos_harvest.log contains general logging for the sw:wos_harvest rake task

Other logs

• integration_tests.log contains general logging for our spec:with-data-integration rake task.
