<title>Error Information From the Runtime System</title>
<p>Error information from the runtime system, that is, information
about a process terminating because of an uncaught error exception,
is by default written to terminal (tty):</p>
<code type="none"><![CDATA[
=ERROR REPORT==== 9-Dec-2003::13:25:02 ===
Error in process <0.27.0> with exit value: {{badmatch,[1,2,3]},[{m,f,1},{shell,eval_loop,2}]}]]></code>
<p>The error information is handled by Logger, which is part of
the Kernel application.</p>
<p>The exit reasons (such as <c>badarg</c>) used by
the runtime system are described in
<seealso marker="doc/reference_manual:errors#exit_reasons">
Errors and Error Handling</seealso>.</p>
<p>For information about Logger and its user
interface, see the
<seealso marker="kernel:logger">logger(3)</seealso>
manual page and
the <seealso marker="kernel:logger_chapter">Logging</seealso>
section in the Kernel User's Guide. The system can be configured so that
log events are
written to file or to tty, or both. In addition, user-defined
applications can send and format log events using
Logger.</p>
</section>
<section>
<title>Log events from OTP behaviours</title>
<p>The standard behaviours (<c>supervisor</c>, <c>gen_server</c>,
and so on) send progress and error information to
Logger. Progress reports are by default not logged, but can be
enabled by setting the Kernel configuration
parameter <c>logger_progress_reports</c> to <c>log</c>. Supervisor
reports, crash reports and other error and information reports
are by default logged through the log handler which is
set up when the Kernel application is started.</p>
<p>Prior to OTP-21, supervisor, crash, and progress reports were
only logged when the SASL application was running. This
behaviour can, for backwards compatibility, be enabled by
setting the Kernel configuration
parameter <c>logger_sasl_compatible</c> to <c>true</c>. For more
information, see
<seealso marker="sasl:error_logging">SASL Error Logging</seealso>
in the SASL User's Guide.</p>
