Log Files in OBIEE 11g

It is always good to know where to find troubleshooting information.  You can check the different log files in the Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE).  The right way to check them is using the Enterprise Manager (EM) page.

EM Login to the URL http://server.domain:7001/em and navigate to:
Farm_bifoundation_domain-> Business Intelligence-> coreapplications-> Dagnostics-> Log Messages

You will find the available files:

• Presentation Services Log
• Server Log
• Scheduler Log
• JavaHost Log
• Cluster Controller Log
• Action Services Log
• Security Services Log
• Administrator Services Log

However, you can also review them directly on the hard disk.
