9.9.5. Debug Security Manager Policies
You can enable debugging information to help you troubleshoot security policy-related issues. The
java.security.debug option configures the level of security-related information reported. The command java -Djava.security.debug=help will produce help output with the full range of debugging options. Setting the debug level to all is useful when troubleshooting a security-related failure whose cause is completely unknown, but for general use it will produce too much information. A sensible general default is access:failure.
Procedure 9.11. Enable general debugging
This procedure will enable a sensible general level of security-related debug information.
Add the following line to the server configuration file.- If the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform instance is running in a managed domain, the line is added to the
bin/domain.conffile for Linux or thebin/domain.conf.batfile for Windows. - If the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform instance is running as a standalone server, the line is added to the
bin/standalone.conffile for Linux, or thebin\standalone.conf.batfile for Windows.
Linux
JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Djava.security.debug=access:failure"
Windows
JAVA_OPTS="%JAVA_OPTS% -Djava.security.debug=access:failure"
Result
A general level of security-related debug information has been enabled.
