1. If you enter an email address in the frevvo.xml parameter and leave the Email address fields on the Edit Tenant screen blank - Doc action emails will use the frevvo.xml from email value and task notification will use tenant admin's email address.
2. If you enter a value into the Email address fields on the Edit tenant page - Doc action and task notification emails will use this value. The value in the frevvo.xml file is overridden. 

If you want to use the frevvo.xml value for Doc action emails, leave the tenant from email address blank. This would mean flow task notifications will use tenant admin's email address. 

Debug sends more debugging info to the tomcat log files. And bounce.email sets an address to receive emails that cannot be delivered to the to email recipients.

Tomcat Logfiles

By default, the  server writes useful logging information to a daily logging file located here: <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs/frevvo.log. You will see the logfiles listed below in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs. The current date appends to the logfile name for all the files except the frevvo log:

• catalina.YYYY-MM-DD.log

Tomcat Logfiles

By default, the  server writes useful logging information to a daily logging file located here: <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs/frevvo.log. You will see the logfiles listed below in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs. The current date appends to the logfile name for all the files except the frevvo log:

• catalina.YYYY-MM-DD.log  - this log captures the stderr and stdout of the tomcat process including startup/shutdown messages. This is usually a small file.
• frevvo.log - all  messages are logged to this file.
• localhost.YYYY.MM.DD.log - this tomcat logfile should be empty.
• localhost_access_log.YYYY - MM - DD.txt - is used to log all HTTP accesses to Tomcat. It is enabled by the following entry in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/conf/server.xml. Comment out the statement below to turn off logging to this file if it is not needed.

<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="${catalina.base}/logs"
               prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt"
               pattern="%h %l %u %t &quot;%r&quot; %s %b &quot;%{Referer}r&quot; &quot;%{User-Agent}r&quot; [%I %{JSESSIONID}c]" />

• host-manager.MM-DD-YYYY.log - this logfile is part of the tomcat distribution and is empty by default. It is a log file for the host-manager web application that is used to manage virtual hosts in tomcat. The host manager web-app is typically not needed because  is preconfigured. Messages are written to this log only if the host-manager web application is being used.
• manager.MM-DD.YYYY.log - this logfile is part of the tomcat distribution and is empty by default - this is the log file for the tomcat manager web application which is used to check the status of web apps, memory usage etc. Messages are written to this log only if the manager web app is being used. 

Debugging logfile levels

The logging levels used by  can be fine-tuned by editing the <frevvo -home>/tomcat/lib/logback.xml file. By default  log level is set to INFO. The logging infrastructure will scan this file every 60 secs so you can live-change the log level. Here is more configuration information .  Stop  to delete the logfiles. They will be recreated on start up.  

You can obtain more debugging information, if needed, by following the steps below to change the loglevel. You will see the results of the changes in  <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs/frevvo.log. 

1. Go to <frevvo-home>/tomcat/lib
2. Open the file logback.xml for editing
3. Find <root level="INFO"> and change the word INFO to DEBUG. Save the file.

Loglevels are : TRACE, DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR, OFF. ALL.  They are case -sensitive so be sure to type them in upper case.  The logging level is cummulative as shown below. Refer to this website for a description of the loglevels and some guidelines for using them.

• OFF = turns all logging off
• ERROR = ERROR 
• WARN = WARN + ERROR,  
• INFO = INFO + WARN + ERROR,
• DEBUG = DEBUG + INFO + WARN + ERROR,  
• TRACE = DEBUG + INFO + WARN +  ERROR
• ALL= turns all logging on

Configuring the logging level for catalina.log, localhost.log, host-manager.log, manager.log and local_access.log is done in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/conf/logging.properties Click here for more information. 

If you are having issues running the server in an environment with proxy setups, load balancers etc. the forms.ui.filter logger can help. This logger will output additional information to the frevvo.log file to assist in determining what the frevvo servlet is seeing. To enable this logger uncomment the following line in logback.xml:

<logger name="com.forms.forms.ui.filter" level="DEBUG" />

Logfile Rotation

The  tomcat bundle install will automatically rotate log files daily. The logfile is the only one affected. Let's say the current date is 6 - 19 - 2013. The current days logging is saved to the frevvo.log file located in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs.  On the next day, 6 - 20 - 2013,  the log from the previous day is copied to a logfile stamped with the previous day's date. (frevvo_2013-06-19). This date stamped frevvo.log is moved into the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\logs\old directory. Logging for 6 - 20 - 2013 is saved in the frevvo.log in <frevvo-home>/tomcat/logs.

Using Debug Mode to see logged in users

If the log level is set to DEBUG, then you will see user login and logout information in the <frevvo-home>\frevvo\tomcat\logs\frevvo.log file. Examples of log entries are shown below. Search for “Server num users” in the log file to quickly see the number of currently logged in/out users. Note the first log entry below shows the number of users currently logged in. Showing the list of currently logged in users via the UI to the  superuser and tenant admins is planned for a future release.

User login:
10:01:40.813 |-DEBUG [http-nio-8082-exec-1] [       c.f.u.UsersMonitor] - Tenant (qa): login: num users: 1. Server num users: 1

Session Timeout

's default web browser session timeout is 480 minutes. If a user is logged into the  server to design forms, or to view their task list, or is using a  form and filling in values but has not yet submitted the form, the session will expire after 480 minutes of inactivity. When the session expires the designer will have to re-login to  to continue designing forms and form users will have to get a new instance of the form and re-enter the values.

...

The default  server session timeout can be overridden for each tenant. See the Edit Tenant topic for more information.

...

The following screen displays when a user tries to submit a form from a timed out session.

Editing Submissions

Designer users can view/edit submissions by clicking the edit link on the submissions panel. Non designer users can view/edit submissions by clicking on the Shared Items tab if they have been granted permission to do so by the designer via the Access Control feature. The frevvo.submission.edit .link parameter must be set to the default value of true, for the edit link to be visible to any  user. To disable the edit link on the submission panel, change the default value of true to false for the frevvo.submissions.edit.link configuration parameter in <frevvo-home>/WEB-INF/web.xml file. The web.xml file must be unzipped from the frevvo.war before it can be edited. Follow the instructions above to unzip, modify and rezip the war file.

 is a multi-tenant application. See the administration section on Manage Tenants. However, it is possible that all you need is a single tenant. If this is your case, it simplifies the  server login if you default the @<tenantname> so the user only needs to enter their username to login.  

There are two files where the changes to default the tenant login to your tenant name can be made: web.xml or the frevvo.xml. The recommended approach is to add the configuration parameters to the frevvo.xm;l file as it keeps all your modified parameters in one place and makes it easy to upgrade to newer releases.  Since the file is outside the frevvo war, you avoid the unzip/rezip of the of the frevvo.war that is needed if you make the changes in web.xml. Examples containing the context parameters for both files are shown below.

...

You can configure the palette to display only the controls that you need or to change the position of the controls in the palette by adding the context parameter:frevvo.palette.controls in the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\conf\Catalina\localhost\frevvo.xml file. The Strings must match exactly but they can be in any order. Remove the name of any controls that you don't want. In all cases, half of the configured amount of controls will display on the left side of the palette and the remaining controls on the right, based on the order in which they are listed in the context paramater. Here is an example showing a designer palette configured with only ten nine controls; 

<Parameter name="frevvo.palette.controls" value="Dropdown,Radio,Checkbox,Section,Repeat,Tabs,Panel,Table,Message" override="false"/>
