If you cannot determine the cause of an issue from the standard logs, you can run ReadyAPI in Debug mode to generate more detailed logs.

To enable Debug mode:

  1. Go to the ReadyAPI installation directory.

  2. Open the bin folder.

  3. Open the soapui-log4j.xml file.

  4. Locate the following configuration:

    <SOAPUI name="SOAPUI">
        <ThresholdFilter level="INFO" onMatch="ACCEPT" onMismatch="DENY"/>
    </SOAPUI>
  5. Change the log level from INFO to DEBUG.

    Example:

    <SOAPUI name="SOAPUI">
        <ThresholdFilter level="DEBUG" onMatch="ACCEPT" onMismatch="DENY"/>
    </SOAPUI>
  6. Save the file.

  7. Restart ReadyAPI.
