   1- Ensure that you are able to login to the modusGate server with Administrative privileges.

   2- Locate the Direct Quarantine root installation folder usually located under "\Vircom\modusGate\directQuarantine Server"

   3- Locate a file named log4net.config and open it notepad.

    4- On line 31 of the file the following string is stated "<level value="ERROR" />

    5- This means that the logs will only display error only if reported thus leaving out any other options such as INFO, WARNINGS, FATAL...etc.

    6- Simply change the value from ERROR to ALL in capital letters. this is show all logging in the log files.

    7- Save the file and restart the modus Direct Quarantine service so that it will take effect.
