Log File 

Use

Under $temp$\bwmsa.log, you can call up a log file about the assembly process (see also BW Report Assembler). The following overview of possible error messages is intended as a guide for solving the corresponding problems.

Features

The client recognizes two types of messages that can appear in the log file. The message type is denoted by the letters at the start of each line of the log:

·        Information messages start with I

·        Error messages start with E

Possible Messages

I : -------------------- Log file reset --------------------

This message only appears at the start of a log file and indicates that the file has been deleted before the ensuing assembly process (with the Delete pushbutton in the User Links screen; for more information, see Solving Problems on Mobile Clients).
