# Configuring logging
<a name="jdbc20-configuring-logging"></a>

You can turn on logging in the driver to assist in diagnosing issues.

You can log driver information by using the following methods:
+ To save logged information in .log files, see [Using log files](jdbc20-using-log-files.md).
+ To send logged information to the LogStream or LogWriter specified in the DriverManager, see [Using LogStream or LogWriter](jdbc20-logstream-option.md). 

You provide the configuration information to the driver in the connection URL. For more information about the syntax of the connection URL, see [Building the connection URL](jdbc20-build-connection-url.md).
