Logging too verbose

Post by mdubash »

Is it possible to find a logging level that does not include over 100,000 lines of information, even though the abbreviated log checkbox is ticked? Yes, that level of detail is useful for debugging, but if everything is working correctly, all I want is a list of files transferred, and errors where they were not, and this information is very difficult to extract.

Thanks.

Hello,
it depends very much on the Logging settings and profile settings and if you are copying to a cloud service or not. Cloud based profiles are usually more detailed so that I can help customers quickly in case of problems.

In general, make sure that nothing is checked in the lower half of the Logs tab sheet on the Program Settings dialog, and make sure you have not chosen "With Timing Info".

If you still see logs being too detailed, please post a few example lines of what you'd like removed from the logs.

Tobias, thanks for responding. I have all the lower half of the logging settings unchecked. The sorts of lines I'm talking about look like this:

Code: Select all

Hello,
you also need to remove the checkmarks
"Detailed" and "With Timing Info" in the upper part of the Logs tab sheet.

Thank you - it was the Timing Info that I forgot to uncheck. Silly mistake!

Actually, I have a similar issue with logging. Here are my logging options:

Here's an example of the detail I am getting for every file:

Code: Select all

I thought I remembered a time when the log files were briefer than what I see now. Could the above detail be condensed into one line, much like the output from the command-line version??

Hello,
yes I will work on simplifying this.
