Abstract

Anywhere 7.6.2.1 - Logs are blank on windows devices

Body

When you open the regular logging view on your device you don't see anything, no matter which log level you've set:

Starting on 7.6.2.1 the logs are supposed to go to OS directory instead of showing on regular logging screen but you must see a LogLocation on regular logging screen:

APAR IJ05386 (DEVICE LOG NOT WORKING ON WINDOWS DEVICES) was opened for that but you can apply the fix manually with the following instructions:

1 have a backup of your \MaximoAnywhere\platform directory
2 Place LoggerReportHandler.js under MaximoAnywhere\platform\maximo-anywhere-platform_7.6.2.201705101500.zip\platform\js\platform\logging\handler

 

View DetailsLoggerReportHandler.js

(See attached file: LoggerReportHandler.js)

 

3 Put Logger.js, TransactionLogger.js and LogWorker.js under both directories:

 

MaximoAnywhere\platform\maximo-anywhere-platform_7.6.2.201705101500.zip\platform\js\platform\logging
MaximoAnywhere\platform\maximo-anywhere-platform-fixpack_7.6.2.1.201711161732.zip\platform\js\platform\logging

4 Run 'build clean update-platform all'
5 Reinstall the app and retry, you should now see the Log Location on your windows device:

(location may vary depending on your username and your app build details)
