Having spent some intimate time with these files in this similar setting in the last few weeks (upgrade ... well an attempt at it) several install logs are in
C:\Documents and Settings\RemAdmin\Local Settings\Temp\1 Not exactly an intuitive place to look. Of course you can look in program files/ar system/arserver/db for the usual arerror.log. Support really likes you to import the samples. I didn't want to do that either but they appeared to insist in order to attempt to help. We actually gave up on the server upgrade because Windows would not recognize the AR System as a win32 application and the service would not connect. No particular resolution to that issue. So we took a brand new server and are building it from scratch ... in fact the database is being installed today/tomorrow. Then I get the server Monday to do a clean v7.0.1P2 install. I'm not exactly sure if you'd classify it as a brand new AR install because we are copying the production database to that server, but AR has never been installed there. So in my case I would expect the users to be recognized and I do have a Demo user created because as I learned in this whole process, is that the new installs really like to be done by Demo. Keep us posted please. Thanks, Susan On 5/3/07, Axton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
On unix, an arerror.log, arsql.log, among others are created /var/tmp during an install. Not sure, but I would imagine these are in the TEMP directory on your windows box. Look at the env vars (right click my computer, properties, advanced tab, environment variables) to see what TEMP and TMP are set to, the look there for some logs. These are typicall pretty revealing for the installation process.
