You can control the amount of information provided with SOAP fault messages by how you set the serviceFaultLevel property for a Web service. Any change in value takes effect immediately at run time.

Set the serviceFaultLevel property to the following value:

  • 2 — To log general error information in a production environment
  • 3 — To log error information in a development environment or in a production environment where more detailed information is required

Note that all Web service logging and fault levels are controlled individually for each Web service to further reduce processing overhead. For more information on setting this property, see Error information levels.
