How to enable debug logging for Premium Antispam in Mail Security for Domino 8.x
Solution
====================================================================================
WARNING: the steps below must be taken only if recommended or instructed by Symantec Technical Support.
====================================================================================
Enabling debug logging for the "conduit" module
The "conduit" module in Premium Antispam is responsible to download Antispam rulesets from Internet every 10 minutes.
- Stop the Domino server.
- On the Domino server enter the directory where SMSDOM is installed (default: \Program Files\Symantec\SMSDOM\PAS\Config)
- Create a backup copy of the file conducfg.xml onto another location/folder.
- Rename the original file conducfg.xml to conducfg_template.txt
- Edit the template text file with any text editor
- Locate the lines showing content similar as the following:
<program name="conduit" xsi:type="conduitType">
<log numberRetained="30" periodUnits="DAY" period="1" level="4">C:\Program Files\Symantec\SMSDOM\PAS\Logs\conduit_log.txt</log>
- To increase the logging level to debug, change the second line as follows:
<log numberRetained="30" periodUnits="DAY" period="1" level="7">C:\Program Files\Symantec\SMSDOM\PAS\Logs\conduit_log.txt</log>
- Save and close the file
- Start the Domino server
- SMSDOM will now log conduit debug-level activity in the log file configured above.
Enabling debug logging for the "bmserver" module
The "bmserver" module in Premium Antispam is responsible to scan messages for Spam.
- Stop the Domino server.
- On the Domino server enter the SMSNDB\PAS\Config folder within the Domino Data directory (default: \Program Files\IBM\Lotus\Domino\Data\SMSNDB\PAS\Config)
- Create a backup copy of the file bmiconfig.xml onto another location/folder.
- Rename the original file bmiconfig.xml to bmiconfig_template.txt
- Edit the template text file with any text editor
- Locate the lines showing content similar as the following:
<program name="bmserver" xsi:type="bmserverType">
<log numberRetained="30" periodUnits="DAY" period="1" level="4">C:\Program Files\IBM\Lotus\Domino\data\SMSNDB\PAS\Logs\bmserver_log.txt</log>
- To increase the logging level to debug, change the second line as follows:
<log numberRetained="30" periodUnits="DAY" period="1" level="7">C:\Program Files\IBM\Lotus\Domino\data\SMSNDB\PAS\Logs\bmserver_log.txt</log>
- Save and close the file
- Start the Domino server
- SMSDOM will now log bmserver debug-level activity in the log file configured above.
Once the data collection has finished, the configuration files must be reverted to the original ones.
