Checking output card 1

If the reason for the failure is still not apparent after consulting output card 3, check output card one. First, create this file, if calling sepvalid from outside of Map Designer, or in Map Designer change the output card settings from sink to file and specify an output file location (a suggested name is out.xml). By default, this card is suppressed (card setting of sink) from creation. This XML instance document will contain a log of all processing during the run of the sepvalid map. It will also list all of the temporary variables used and show the various map steps performed and their results.

You will be able to use this output to track the steps of the framework and determine on which map the failure is occurring, or the unexpected results are being introduced.
