You can find all fortress announcements, including job cancellations and combat reports, in gamelog.txt in the main DF folder. Errors should be in errorlog.txt, in the same folder.

How do you retake a door
by having a dwarf, militia usually, go though it.
and are dogs the only ones that can spot intruders?
any friendly, or enemy of the intruder, can spot them.

q to query buildings, select the door with the cursor, x to remove building. A dwarf will come and haul it away.
