If you want console, it is not enough to have it enabled, you have to have it also shown at startup.
If you do nto wish gui conosle, all logs should be enable-able via -verbose  and/or a deployment
proeprt. You can enable also some kind of file logging. Both properties are from gui, debugging.

Still I belive your major friend will be visible gui console, as it have diffeent colors for itw'
std out/err and client stderr/out

in linux itis $XDG_CONFIG_DIR/icedtea-web and $XDG_CACHE_DIR/icedtea-web which is usually
~/.config/icedtea-web and ~/.cache/icedtea-web  and I do not think htere is if windows, so it ends same.
