To
Do this
Enable logging for Web Publishing
Select Enable logging for Web Publishing so that errors and other information is stored in the wpe.log. Error logging enables logging from the Web Publishing Engine, FileMaker WebDirect errors, and errors from FileMaker scripts run by the Web Publishing Engine. The logging level for messages determines what type of information is captured.
Set the maximum log size
Specify the Log Size.
The minimum log size is 1 MB.
The maximum log size is 1000 MB.
The default log size is 40 MB.
The number specified is the maximum size for the wpe.log file, which you find in the Logs folder. When the wpe.log file reaches this maximum size, the Web Publishing Engine copies the wpe.log file to a single backup file, wpe.log.1, and creates a new wpe.log file. See Web publishing logs.
Set the logging level for messages
Select Error level messages to log any Web Publishing Engine errors that have occurred, including application errors, usage errors, and system errors.
Select Info and Error level messages to log error information and information about access to the Web Publishing Engine, including a record of all end-user XML requests to generate Custom Web Publishing output.
This setting changes the amount of information that is written to the wpe.log file.
Set the maximum number of Custom Web Publishing connections
Specify the Maximum number of Custom Web Publishing connections.
Note  Although FileMaker Server allows an unrestricted number of simultaneous connections for Custom Web Publishing clients, most operating systems impose their own limits on the number of network connections and open files that a process may use. This operating system limit sets the effective limit on the number of simultaneous client connections.
2. Click Save.
