Console Log

The Console log contains the activity of your enterprise server region since startup, showing all processes leading up to a failure. It is automatically generated during each server session.

Uses

Start your troubleshooting by reviewing this log to see what errors occurred, when they occurred, and the process ID and timestamp for each. Compare this information to output from other diagnostic tools to determine which errors match up with the activity reported by those other tools.

Output file

Name	Location
console.log	The enterprise server region's system directory folder. See System Directory Location for the default location, or check the General Properties server page in ESCWA and the System Directory setting.

At startup, an enterprise server region renames the most recent console.log file to console.bak, overwriting any existing console.bak file.

Important: When gathering information for a OpenText Support for Micro Focus Products case, include both the console.log and console.bak files. Be sure to back these up before restarting the server after a failure.
