Can I redirect the stdout and stderr pipes to a file?

You should be able to use try...catch blocks where you expect errors and know how to handle them and continue on. This should work just as is does for running JavaScripts against the desktop product.

Thanks Paul.

I want to handle errors in javascript, but my script always terminates when meeting errors. How can I catch errors in script without stoping it? Any tips? Thank you very much.

Hi Nicole,

If you're starting the server at the command line you can redirect the output to a file by doing this:

indesignserver.com > output.txt

On the Mac side you can redirect stdout and stderr separately:

(indesignserver > output.txt) >& error.txt

Oh, and it's also possible to get at some of the information from a script, there's an errorListErrors (JS: app.errorListErrors.item(i).listErrorMessage)
