Enable trace for wsadmin script

You can enable trace for tracking transaction and debugging problems when you execute the wsadmin script. You can do that by setting these two properties in the wsadmin.properties file


#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The traceFile property determines where trace and logging
# output are directed. If more than one user will be using
# wsadmin simultaneously, different traceFile properties should
# be set in user properties files.
# The default is that all tracing and logging go to the console;
# it is recommended that a value be specified here.
# If the file name contains DBCS characters, use unicode format such as \uxxxx, where xxxx is a number
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
com.ibm.ws.scripting.traceFile=C:/Cert/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/logs/wsadmin.traceout

#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The traceString property governs the trace in effect for
# the scripting client process.
# The default is no tracing.
#-------------------------------------------------------------------------
com.ibm.ws.scripting.traceString=com.ibm.*=all=enabled


By default com.ibm.ws.scripting.traceString property is commented so first uncomment it. You can also change the location of the trace file which is logs folder by default.

I tried enabling the trace and then installing enterprise application using wsadmin script, it generates lots of log statements like these
