Organising server log files

ℹ️ Info Applies to: on-prem customers; primedocs desktop, OneOffixx

When we receive support requests, we ask for server log files depending on the case. These are stored on the application server and can be downloaded from the Admin Dashboard.

Find out here how to access the log files:

Instructions

  1. Open the dashboard in your browser: Open the dashboard (requires the appropriate permissions)
  2. Click Apps.

  1. Open the App Management of the relevant server application. Which server application you need the log files from depends on your problem:
  2. If it concerns a server-side address interface that is behaving incorrectly, this relates to the AddressService.
  3. If users cannot synchronise, this relates to the Service.
  4. Or if the dashboard itself is not displayed correctly, the log of the DataSourceAdminApp could provide information.
  5. Ask the support team in the ticket which specific server log files we need.
