Introduction

The CapaInstaller System generates several different types of log files to record the actions taken by its various elements and/or the errors encountered. These are stored in sub-folders located under the following path:

<ProgramFiles>\CapaInstaller\Logs\
The logs are always stored on the machine where the relevant application or service that generated them is running. Below you can see the sub-folder and file name of each possible log file and gives a short description of each. These logs can be useful when troubleshooting your CapaInstaller System and applications.

Subfolder	Filename	Description

	CapaInstaller CiStub Core.log	Default location: C:\Windows\Temp, but is placed in %temp% according to the context CIStub is running in. The log is geared towards Launch logging for CIStub and stops when CIStub is capable of reporting to its own log file.
