Writing status bar history to a log file

You can use the NOTES.INI setting LOGSTATUSBAR=1 to enable logging of status bar messages to the local log file, LOG.NSF. You can then use the information that is written to the log file to assist you when troubleshooting problems.

Procedure

To write the status bar messages to an external file, use the NOTES.INI setting Debug_Outfile=path to file with the NOTES.INI setting LOGSTATUSBAR=1.

Example

LOGSTATUSBAR=1
Debug_Outfile=c:\temp\StatusBarLogging.txt

What to do next

To view the logged messages, open the file, LOG.NSF, and then click the Miscellaneous Events view. Status bar messages are appended with Status Msg.

Use the information that is written to the log file to assist you when troubleshooting problems.
