I can understand your desire to see this for your immediate purposes, but this solution is counter productive when you integrate AXIS into a production environment or product.
If you prefer, I would be happy to enable DEBUG output to an "axis.log" file, but not to the screen (Rich, who sits some 3 feet behind me, will likely whack the back of my head if I start dumping such lines to the console). I think the pattern that seems most innocuous is to be notified of the error on the console, and dig through the log for the details. If the community has another opinion then I think it should be debated as a "design point", rather than tweeking individual lines to help. <ras> ******************************************* Richard A.
