Logging options

Administrator rights are required to modify the settings described here. To make the changes, you can use the ODBC Data Source Administrator Logging Options dialog box or modify the Windows registry directly.

Log level

This option enables ODBC driver logs with different levels of detail. In Windows, you can use the registry or a dialog box to configure logging. The option is located in the following registry path:

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Amazon Athena\ODBC\Driver

The following log levels are available:

  • OFF - Logging is disabled

  • ERROR - Only error messages are logged

  • WARN - Warning messages and errors are logged

  • INFO - Informational messages, warnings, and errors are logged

  • DEBUG - Detailed debug information plus all lower level messages are logged

  • TRACE - Most detailed level of logging, includes all messages

Note

Each log level includes all messages from the levels below it. Higher log levels may impact performance and generate larger log files.
