Resolving The Problem

For releases of V9.0, V8.5, V8, and V7:

1.	In the Application Server Administrative Console, expand Troubleshooting and select Logs and Trace.
2.	In the Logging and Tracing page, select your server and then select Diagnostic Trace.
3.	Ensure that Enable Log is selected.
4.	Under Trace Output, select File, and ensure the appropriate file size and number of historical file saved are set accordingly. It is recommended to set the number of historical trace files to 20 and the size of each historical trace file to 50MB.
5.	Click OK, and save your configuration.
6.	Again, expand Troubleshooting, and select Logs and Trace.
7.	In the Logging and Tracing page, select your server and select Change Log Detail Levels.
8.	Enter the following trace string on either the Configuration or Runtime tabs: *=info:WAS.j2c=all:RRA=all:Transaction=all
