Konica Minolta OpenAPI Client Logging

Issue

How to Enable and Disable the Kofax Front Office Server (KFS) Konica Minolta MFP Client Logging to log communication between the client and the server.

Cause

The Kofax Konica-Minolta MFP Client is a browser-based client that accesses the OpenAPI web application on the KFS server.  OpenAPI logging is configured on the KFS server in the web.config file.

1. On each KFS server, navigate to
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Kofax\Front Office Server 4.3\
    
2. Open web.config in a text editor such as Notepad
    
3. Locate the following line:

   <KfsSettings ParentSite="" ServerHttp="80" PingInterval="10" StandaloneIIS="true" EnableOpenAPILog="false"/>
   

   
    
4. Set the EnableOpenAPILog value to true:

   <KfsSettings ParentSite="" ServerHttp="80" PingInterval="10" StandaloneIIS="true" EnableOpenAPILog="true"/>
   

   
    
5. Save the changes to web.config
    
6. Restart the World Wide Web Publishing service
    
7. OpenAPI will update the Konica Minolta device logs stored in the following location in real-time:
   C:\ProgramFiles\Kofax\Front Office Server\log\webapp
