Generate an Error Log

You can monitor and debug filtering operations by enabling a detailed error log. This allows you to see errors that are generated at run time and to track problem files in stream or file mode.

NOTE: Error logs are not generated when in-process filtering is enabled.

The error log might include the following information:

  • Generated error messages.
  • Time stamp.
  • Path and file name of the file in which the error occurred.
  • Length of the file in which the error occurred. If the name of the original file or the name of the temporary file are not obtained in stream mode, the file length is reported.

The following is a sample log file:

-KVOOPE 12 # Time: 11:14:32 # File Len = 68140
-KVOOPE 13 # Time: 11:23:05 # H:\files\WP\Word97\fnldmsa.doc
-KVOOPE  5 # Time: 12:15:54 # H:\files\SS\XL2000\corporate.xsl
-KVOOPE  5 # Time: 12:45:19 # H:\files\WP\WPerf5\wp501.doc
-KVOOPE 12 # Time: 14:25:33 # H:\files\PG\PPoint95\95.ppt
-KVOOPE 26 # Time: 16:26:04 # File Len = 19117568
-KVOOPE 10 # Time: 20:27:40 # File Len = 19117568
