B.5.1 An error dialog box stating "for details refer to log" appears.

Issue: An error occurs directing you to refer to the log for more information.

Solution: The log can be referenced by selecting "Help" > "About NetCOBOL Studio(x64)" from the menu bar, selecting "Configuration Details" in the dialog box that appears, and then selecting "View Error Log" in the Configuration Details dialog box.

To display the Error Log view and reference the log:

  1. Select "Window" > "Show View" > "Other" from the menu bar.

  2. Select "General" > "Error Log" in the tree in the "Show View" dialog box that appears.

  3. Click the "OK" button to display the Error Log view.

Information such as when each workspace was created, when NetCOBOL Studio was started, and what errors have occurred in NetCOBOL Studio are recorded in the log. Some log information will indicates normal NetCOBOL Studio operation. Problems are recorded at the time they occur in NetCOBOL Studio. If no NetCOBOL Studio operation problems are indicated in the error log, the error dialog box display may be caused by an erroneous operation, such as trying to do a build for remote development with incorrect server information. If a NetCOBOL Studio operation problem does appear in the error log, collect the log information listed below and contact a Fujitsu certified service engineer.

The log files are created in the following folder:
