Apache/httpd logs

These logs are stored in the /var/log/httpd directory.
Log name

access_log
Records all requests processed by the MPP.
error_log

ssl_access_log
Records all requests processed by the MPP.
ssl_error_log
Records diagnostic information and any errors the MPP encounters while processing requests. If the MPP does not start or operate properly, you can usually find details about what went wrong in this file and the error_log file.
ssl_request_log
Records all requests processed by the MPP.
ws_access_log
Records all requests for Avaya Experience Portal Web services.
ws_error_log
Records information concerning the MPP Web Services MMS, CdhService, and TransService, including errors when these services process requests. If the EPM cannot contact the MPP, look in this file first.

MPP process logs

The process logs contain event and trace messages from the MPP subsystems. By default, they are stored in subdirectories under the $AVAYA_MPP_HOME/logs/process/ directory, and they are accessible from the Log Directories page of the Media Server Service Menu.
Note:
The maximum size for each log and the number of logs to retain is set in the Trace Logger group of the MPP Settings page.

MPP records logs

The record logs contain Contact Detail Records (CDRs) and Session Detail Records (SDRs). All data is sent to the EPM. These logs are stored in the $AVAYA_MPP_HOME/logs/records/<yyyy>/<mm>/<dd>/ directory, and the log names are:
  • <name>_cdr_<#>_<date>.bin
  • <name>_sdr_<#>_<date>.bin

MPP transcription logs

These logs contain session transcription data.
You can access these log files by creating a Session Detail report through the EPM.
The transcriptions are stored in the $AVAYA_MPP_HOME/logs/<yyyy>/<mm>/<dd>/transcriptions/ directory.
If utterances are saved for an application, they are stored in the $AVAYA_MPP_HOME/logs/transcriptions/<yyyy>/<mm>/<dd>/utterances/<session-id> directory.
