The batch file is what starts the application - all it does is to start the application and redirect the debug output to the %LOCALAPPDATA%\.purple\debuglogs\2010-06-25_08.44.53.40.log (date/time at which process started) file. Instead of running Pidgin using your normal shortcut, it is launched using the pidgin.vbs file. That debug log file is just a text file that you can open in any text editor. The idea is that we can look at that debug log and see if there is anything there that can give us an indication of why it is hanging. -D >>>> Daniel Atallah <[email protected]> 6/24/2010 3:14 PM >>> > On Thu, Jun 24, 2010 at 14:59, Chuck Braden <[email protected]> wrote: >> So is the creation of a pidgin.vbs file supposed to be able to start the >> application in the mode that will generate the debug log?
