Installer log files

Each installer will generate two log files regardless if there were errors during the install. The log files are created in the [Product Directory]/logs directory or, if no [Product Directory] was specified, the /logs directory.

• component_install.log (also referred to as the "install" log)

  For example, the Core installer generates a NCM- 10.1.4.0-install.log file.

• component_debug.log (also referred to as the "debug" log)

  For example, the Core installer generates a NCM- 10.1.4.0-debug.log file.

  The install log file contains a high level overview of the installation. If an error message is displayed at the end of an installer, open the install log file and search for ERROR. This will give a high level description of the error.

  The debug log file contains the stdout, stderr, and exit code from every operation in the installer. The debug log file contains a large amount of information and is often overwhelming. It is advisable to start with the install log file to find any installation errors.

  Note:

  If you are installing using Silent Mode and the install fails, only the core_debug.log file will be generated.
