  <title>Log files</title>
  <shortdesc>When you run the DITA-OT, key information is logged on the screen. This information can also be written to
    a log file. If you encounter a problem, you can analyze this information to determine the source of the problem and
    then take action to resolve it.</shortdesc>
  <conbody>
    <p>The logging behavior varies depending on whether you use the <cmdname>dita</cmdname> command or Ant to invoke a
      toolkit build.</p>
    <dl>
      <dlentry>
        <dt><cmdname>dita</cmdname> command</dt>
        <dd>By default, only warning and error messages are written to the screen. If you use the
            <parmname>-v</parmname> option, logging will be more verbose and informative messages are also written out.
          The <parmname>-l</parmname> option can be used to write the log messages into a file.</dd>
      </dlentry>
      <dlentry>
        <dt>Ant</dt>
        <dd>By default, status information is written to the screen. If you issue the <parmname>-l</parmname> parameter,
          the build runs silently and the information is written to a log file with the name and location that you
          specified.</dd>
      </dlentry>
    </dl>
    <section>
      <title>Using other Ant loggers</title>
      <p>You also can use other Ant loggers; see
        <xref href="https://ant.apache.org/manual/listeners.html" format="html" scope="external">Listeners &amp;
          Loggers</xref> in the Ant documentation for more information.</p>
      <p>For example, you can use the <b>AnsiColorLogger</b> to colorize the messages written on the screen.</p>
      <dl>
        <dlentry>
          <dt><cmdname>dita</cmdname> command</dt>
          <dd>
            <p>To use a custom Ant logger with the <cmdname>dita</cmdname> command, add the logger to the
                <codeph>ANT_ARGS</codeph> environment variable by calling the following command before calling the
                <cmdname>dita</cmdname> command:</p>
            <codeblock>export ANT_ARGS="-logger org.apache.tools.ant.listener.AnsiColorLogger"</codeblock>
            <p>Now you will get colorized messages when the <cmdname>dita</cmdname> command runs.</p>
            <note type="tip">Environment variables can also be set permanently. See
              <xref href="https://www.java.com/en/download/help/path.xml" format="html" scope="external">How do I set or
                change the PATH system variable?</xref> for information on how to set the <codeph>PATH</codeph>
              environment variable. You can set the <codeph>ANT_ARGS</codeph> environment variable in the same
              way.</note>
          </dd>
        </dlentry>
        <dlentry>
          <dt>Ant</dt>
          <dd>
            <p>If you prefer to launch the DITA-OT directly from Ant, you can also add the logger to the
                <codeph>ANT_ARGS</codeph> environment variable, as explained above. You can also set the logger with the
                <codeph>-logger</codeph> parameter when calling Ant.</p>
            <codeblock>ant -logger org.apache.tools.ant.listener.AnsiColorLogger</codeblock>

    <!--<section><title>Analyze messages on the screen</title><p>During the building process, some information or messages
        occur on the screen to tell you about the status, warnings, errors, or fatal errors. You need to analyze the
        messages to solve the problems. <ul>
          <li>If the build succeeded with some warning messages on the screen, it means that there are something
            incorrect within the user input parameters or source DITA files; but you can still get the correct
            output.</li>
          <li>If the build succeeded with some error messages on the screen, it means that there are something incorrect
            within the user input parameters or source DITA files; the output maybe not correct.</li>
          <li>If the build failed with fatal error message on the screen, it means that there are something illegal or
            invalid within the user input parameters or source DITA files; you may get no output, or wrong output.</li>
        </ul>
      </p></section>-->
    <!--<section><title>Analyze messages in the log file</title><p>A log file in plain text format is generated in the log
        directory, which has a name combined with both input file name and transformation type. You can open it and find more
        detailed information, which are helpful for solving problems. You can use the same way introduced above to
        analyze the messages and solve the problems.</p><p>The log directory can be specified by:</p><ul>
        <li>using Ant, with argument <codeph>-logfile=<userinput>log-file</userinput></codeph></li>
        <li>using command-line tool, the parameter <codeph>/logdir:<userinput>log-dir</userinput></codeph>.</li>
      </ul></section>-->
    <!--<section><title>Turn on debug mode</title><p>Under debug mode, diagnostic information, such as: environment
        variables, stack trace, will be logged into the log file. These information can help the user or developer to go
        deep into the problems and find the root cause.</p><p>By default, the debug mode is disabled. To turn on the
        debug mode on, you need to follow the usage below: <ul>
          <li>Append <codeph>-v</codeph> and <codeph>-Dargs.debug=yes</codeph> in Ant command.</li>
          <li>Append <codeph>/d</codeph> or <codeph>/debug</codeph> in command-line tool.</li>
        </ul></p></section>-->
