# How Do I Turn Debug Logging Mode On or Off?

You can enable or disable debug logging in the `node.properties` file on the Keep server.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> This article only apply to standalone setups.

To turn on debug logging mode:

1. Open the `node.properties` file from the following location:

****Lasernet Keep 11.1 and Later****

`C:\Program Files\Lasernet\Lasernet Keep\Server_11.<minor version> - <node name>\wildfly-<version number>.Final\standalone\configuration\node.properties`.

****Lasernet Keep 11.0****

`C:\Program Files\Formpipe Software\Lasernet Keep\Server_11.0 - <node name>\wildfly-<version number>.Final\standalone\configuration\node.properties`.
2. Find the `Logging` section.

```livecodeserver
#
# Logging
# --------------------------------------------------

# Core Lasernet Keep code
#logging.level.efstech=DEBUG

# Web Services v2
#logging.level.websvc21=DEBUG

# Connection pool logging
#logging.level.efstech.jca=DEBUG

# Set the console output logging level
#logging.level.console=DEBUG

# Set to DEBUG to keep temp files:
#logging.level.tempfiles=DEBUG
```
3. Remove the `#` in front of all features for which you need debug logging enabled. For example:

```livecodeserver
# Core Lasernet Keep code
logging.level.efstech=DEBUG
```

> [!WARNING]
> Warning
> 
> Extended use of debug logging mode will cause log files to grow substantially, particularly when debugging the core Keep code (efstech). Disable debug logging mode when root cause analysis is complete.
4. Click **Save** and then restart Keep.

To turn off debug logging mode, repeat the steps already described, but this time re-insert `#` next to the relevant features.
