Command to enable debug logging

curl -u admin -v -X PUT -d "" -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:7990/rest/api/latest/logs/logger/com.isroot/debug

Where:

  • admin is the username for a Bitbucket administrator

  • localhost:7990 is the hostname and port of your Bitbucket instance.

If your Bitbucket instance is served via HTTPS, update the debug logging command to “https://” instead of “http://”.

A successful command generates this entry in your Bitbucket log:
com.isroot Switching to log level [debug]

Confirm this entry is present before proceeding with further debug testing.

Command to disable debug logging

curl -u admin -v -X PUT -d "" -H "Content-Type: application/json" http://localhost:7990/rest/api/latest/logs/logger/com.isroot/info

  • This command is identical to the first one, except it uses info instead of debug at the end.
