Use Log Files to Debug Issues
These topics provide instructions for debugging issues by reviewing log files.
Debug Deployment Script Failure
Problem
The deployment script fails.
Solution
If the
deployment
script fails, you must check the installation log files in the
config-dir
directory. By default, the
config-dir
directory stores six zipped log files. The current log file is saved as
log, and the previous log files are saved as
log.1 through
log.5.
Every time you run the
deployment
script
(deploy
),
the current log is saved, and the oldest one is
discarded.
You typically find error messages at the end of a log file. View the error message, and fix the configuration.
