Executive Summary
The FND Log Messages report provides access to the Oracle EBS debug log (FND Logging). It is the primary tool for diagnosing runtime errors and performance issues.
Business Challenge
- Error Diagnosis: Finding the specific error message and stack trace when a user reports a “System Error”.
- Performance Tuning: Analyzing the timing of log messages to identify slow-running code blocks.
- Security Audit: Reviewing login failures or access denials logged by the system.
The Solution
This Blitz Report queries FND_LOG_MESSAGES:
- Message Text: The actual log entry.
- Module: The code module (e.g.,
fnd.plsql.Security). - User: The user who triggered the message.
- Level: The severity (Statement, Procedure, Event, Exception, Error, Unexpected).
Technical Architecture
The report queries FND_LOG_MESSAGES and joins to FND_USER for context.
Parameters & Filtering
- User Name: Filter for logs generated by a specific user session.
- Module Contains: Filter for specific code areas (e.g.,
%OAF%). - Log Level: Filter to see only Errors or Exceptions.
Performance & Optimization
- High Volume: The log table can be massive. Always filter by Date and User/Module.
- Retention: Logs are typically purged daily or weekly, so run this report soon after the issue occurs.
