The Console JSON Error Log Publisher is primarily intended to be used for server instances that are run in no-detach mode (that is, instances that are started with the --nodetach argument). When the logger is used in a server that is not running in no-detach mode, it may have reduced performance and functionality.

fatal-error - The error log severity that is used for messages that provide information about fatal errors which may force the server to shut down or operate in a significantly degraded state.

info - The error log severity that is used for messages that provide information about significant events within the server that are not warnings or errors.

mild-error - The error log severity that is used for messages that provide information about mild (recoverable) errors encountered during processing.

mild-warning - The error log severity that is used for messages that provide information about mild warnings triggered during processing.

notice - The error log severity that is used for the most important informational messages (i.e., information that should almost always be logged but is not associated with a warning or error condition).

severe-error - The error log severity that is used for messages that provide information about severe errors encountered during processing.

severe-warning - The error log severity that is used for messages that provide information about severe warnings triggered during processing.

debug - The error log severity that is used for messages that provide debugging information triggered during processing.
