Checking the configuration

There is no check for the consistency of the configuration when it has been set up, so errors will only be seen on runtime when the application is executed. In order to help with troubleshooting, there are a few things that can be done:

First, in the error dialog that will be presented in the workbench, you can see the actual command line call in the Advanced tab at the bottom. This can be a great help identifying syntax errors in the call.

Second, if you choose to import standard out and standard error as text, this will make it possible to check error messages posted by the external application (see figure 12.20).

Once the set-up is running and stable, you can deselect these options.
