In the demo dolphin apps using the "InMemoryConfig" setups, both client and server messages pop up in the terminal, e.g.:
...
[INFO] C: -> Command: AttributeCreated attr:15C, pm:dataMold, property:Matches(FIFA) value:FIFA matches qualifier:null tag:LABEL
[INFO] C: -> Command: AttributeCreated attr:16C, pm:dataMold, property:Matches(RSSSF) value:false qualifier:null tag:ENABLED
[INFO] C: -> Command: AttributeCreated attr:17C, pm:dataMold, property:Matches(RSSSF) value:RSSSF matches qualifier:null tag:LABEL
[INFO] S: received Command: CreatePresentationModel pmId dataMold pmType null attributes [[propertyName:Name, id:0C, qualifier:null, value:null, baseValue:null, tag:VALUE], [propertyName:Rank, id:1C, qualifier:null, value:null, baseValue:null, tag:VALUE], [propertyName:YearOfBirth, id:2C, qualifier:null, value:null, baseValue:null, tag:VALUE], [propertyName:Country, id:3C, qualifier:null, value:null, baseValue:null, tag:VALUE], [propertyName:Matches(FIFA), id:4C, qualifier:null, value:null, baseValue:null, tag:VALUE], [propertyName:Matches(RSSSF), id:5C, qualifier:null, value:null, baseValue:null, tag:VALUE]]
[INFO] S: received Command: AttributeCreated attr:6C, pm:dataMold, property:Name value:false qualifier:null tag:ENABLED

In client/server mode, the client side prints all the messages as usual (prefixed with [C]), but the server is dead quiet. Is there a way of turning on the server-side messages as well?
You turn on server-side logging the same way as on the client side: LogConfig.logCommunication()
For example see the lines 40ff in https://github.com/canoo/open-dolphin/blob/master/dolphin-grails/grails-app/utils/DolphinSpringBean.groovy
Depending on your choice of server, the server may need some additional configuration to control where log statements go and whether they are generated at all.
