Hi,

logger.debug() is a method on server-side javascript.

If you're trying to use logging in client side JS, you can use alfresco's logging:

Alfresco.logger.debug("message");‍

. Or simple old

console.log()‍

will work, but not in internet explorer.

And on the server-side, I think you don't have

logger.debug()‍

. I think you can only have <code>logger.log()/code>, at least on the /share side of things. /alfresco app has them all: log(), debug(), error().

Thanks for ur reply Zlatko,

logger.debug() is working fine in server side webscripts, but I'm trying to use logger.debug() on presentation side webscrips (i.e, in sample.get.js ). It throwing error.

Yes, use Alfresco.logger.debug("message"); there.

Maybe you could copy and paste in the code and the file it's in… there seems to be some confusion over whether you're trying to use WebScript controller logging code in client-side JavaScript or vice versa. Hopefully by providing this information we'll be able to identify the problem.

Hi,

I'm trying to use logger.debug("message"); in sample.get.js file i.e, on presentation webscript. Does logger.debug will work?

Uh, it is in a webscript controller, so server-side. I am not 100% sure, but I think you can only use

logger.log()‍

there, not

logger.debug()‍

. That should work.

Yes, that's correct (use logger.log) see the API here: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/4.0_JavaScript_API#Logging_API
