Using the Debug option

If you encounter errors, you can enable the debug option to help troubleshoot.

To enable debugging:

  1. Navigate to the<tools_install_dir>/Core/config directory and open the fortify.properties file.
  2. You can either enable debug mode for all OpenTextâ„¢ Application Security Tools or for specific applications. Remove the comment tag (#) from in front of the property and set the value to true.
