Logging in Qlik ODBC Connector Package consists of two different parts.

• Qlik ODBC Connector logging
• ODBC driver logging

Qlik ODBC Connector Package Logging

• Edit Qlik ODBC Connector Package config file. Default location; C:\Program Files\Common Files\Qlik\Custom Data\QvOdbcConnectorPackage\QvODBCConnector.exe.config
• Locate the LoggingLevel setting and change the value to ALL

      <setting name="LoggingLevel" serializeAs="String">
	        <value>ALL</value>
      </setting>

• Logs can be collected from C:\ProgramData\Qlik\Custom Data\QvODBCConnector\Log 
• Disable debug logging after finished troubleshooting, by setting LoggingLevel setting and change the value to INFO

      <setting name="LoggingLevel" serializeAs="String">
	        <value>INFO</value>
      </setting>
