on the servers planning error logs have stopped updating. any idea why it stopped writing logs in planningerror log file?
Have you changed some of the Planning registry settings?
no I haven't.i will have to check with server admins. are there any specific registry settings which would do this?
Check this out (http://www.cognoise.com/community/index.php?topic=5134.msg17867#msg17867)
thats interesting to know.
but i think we can use epdebug...exe to enable verbose. its the same thing right?
i was looking for the place where you define planning log file path. that you define in cognos config.
I havent't worked with epdebugger yet but it seems to do the same thing as the settings in the registry.
Where exactly do you change the path in cognos config? I haven't found that.
Are you logs still not working? Have you tried to restart the service?
I've come across situations where the error log goes somewhere different if >1 user has signed into the Cognos server using the same UserId which is used by the Cognos Planning Service.
To keep the Temp files apart, windows creates a numbered subfolder under the %temp% folder for each additional user. I've seen some places where they have 3 or 4 planningerrorlogs because of this...
Sascha: yes logs have been working but showing in different folder. several times restarted services.
Blackadder: i think the situation u described is the real cause. Anyways, i wanted to know why my logs changed folder.
the temp folder path in cognos config is for planning error logs?
Not 100% but I'm fairly sure it uses the TEMP variable rather than a Cognos Configuration setting.
