Viewing component installation log

A log file is automatically generated when you install a component. The log file is saved as a Comma-separated Values (.csv) file.

To view the component installation log, do the following:

  1. Wait until component installation completes, and then click View Log File to download the corresponding log file.
  2. Open the downloaded .csv file.

Alternatively:

  1. Go to <My Profile> | Administration | System | Logging.
  2. From Select log files, select Component Install Logs.
  3. In the View Log table column, click the icon to download the corresponding log file.
  4. Open the downloaded .csv file.

The log file contains two columns and a row for each action attempted during the component manager installation. The first column contains one of the following values:

  • OK. Indicates that the action completed successfully.
  • Overwrite. Indicates that the action overwrote a previous change.
  • Fail. Indicates that the action failed.

The second column contains the script command that was run.
