Export Log File

In order to simplify the troubleshooting of import problems, an export log containing information on which items were imported and in what order is created.

The location of the log file is configured in the writer filePath element (under ExportLogging) in the Settings.xml file (default is .\log\update.cockpit.export.csv). Aside from the default log file, which is overwritten with each import, the log file is also saved under a unique name by appending a unique ID to the file name (e.g. update.cockpit.export_1836a97d-f833-4f00-a296-fda6301471c4.csv).

For more details on the formating and settings, see https://support.aurea.com.

You can open the log file from the overview of an export, see Import/Export History.

Note: As a large number of log files may be created over time, it makes sense to periodically delete older log files.

The log file includes the start and end of the export process, as well as the following information on individual items (separated by semicolons):

  • Export time stamp (e.g. 2009.07.13;16:57:48)
  • Log entry type (e.g. Export, Info)
  • The type of item (e.g. Record, Format)
  • The item's URI (e.g mm://Record/00/x0000000000000001)
  • The status of the export (e.g Success), see below

The export status can have the following values:

  • Success: The item was exported successfully
  • Failure: The item was not exported successfully.
