25.7. Troubleshooting Authentication #
The manager log is used for troubleshooting authentication.
You can specify logging parameters in the ppem-manager.yml manager configuration file. Logging can be done in a separate file or in the system journal (journalctl).
To troubleshoot authentication:
Connect to the server where the manager is installed.
View the manager log:
If logging is done in a separate file:
-- Output recent PPEM errors -- tail -n 1000 "path_to_the_PPEM_log_file" | grep ERROR
If logging is done in the system journal:
-- Output PPEM errors for the last 5 minutes -- journalctl --since "5m ago" -u ppem.service -g ERROR
Perform the actions required for troubleshooting authentication.
