Analyst log files

On Windows

In Windows, Analyst creates its internal log into a local text file. Please follow the instructions to get the file:

  1. Copy and paste the path %LOCALAPPDATA%\SDAT directly into your Windows Explorer/File Explorer. The content of the folder will be displayed. The physical path of this folder is e.g.,  C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\SDAT. For convenience you can also bookmark this folder for future use.
  2. Look for the file named: "sdat_runtime.log" and attach it to the message.

We will use the file for diagnosing the problem you reported. Ideally, the file should be attached right after the error occurred. You can also paste the file location path (%LOCALAPPDATA%\SDAT\sdat_runtime.log) directly into the email client dialog during selection of an attachment.

On Linux

If you are using Analyst in Linux, provide the path ~/.SDAT/sdat_runtime.log in the file manager or directly in an email client attachment dialog.
