Introduction
Callisto Logging Tool is used to view error and debugging information within Callisto.
These are internal messages that track the processing of jobs through Callisto. These
messages help Administrators to understand the processing of jobs. The log messages are
extremely useful when debugging scripts, and highlight any errors occurring within the
script. When writing your own Callisto Script, the syntax of the script can be checked by
the script editor. However, if the script is not logically correct these will be shown in the
Callisto Logging Tool. Under normal operation there should be no errors generated in any
of the log files. But sometimes, when jobs are not passed to the correct printer, or jobs
disappear, it would useful to track those errors.
