Where does the WTP Eclipse plugin write it's error log?

Where does the WTP Eclipse plugin write it's error log? I'm not talking about Tomcat's log, but rather the log for the plugin in Eclipse.

Solution

  • When I check out the "Error Log" view, I see errors from my WLS server instance logged. I did a little more digging and found in my workspace under the .metadata folder a ".log" file. This appears to be the same file that is showing up under "Error Log".

    Relative path to the log would be <your_workspace_dir>\.metadata\.log
