SENDLOG.EXE

Sendlog is a command line application which will automatically send the most recent log files and others to a special FTP folder available to all Development and Tech Support. It is designed by default to send the files which Development or Tech Support would need my just double-clicking the application with no user input. This makes it convenient for Tech Support to instruct a customer to run the application themselves. It is however discouraged to train techs to run it as it could easily fill up our FTP storage with files that we don’t want or need.

When run, the application compresses all the log files and other files requested into a single zip file named using the machines license and the current date and time, example 10000-201103161554.zip.

The files will be located in the folder SiteLogs in each of your personal FTP folders. It is the responsibility of the tech to delete those files no longer needed from the FTP folder. We simply don’t have enough disk space to accommodate log files for every system run automatically.
