Problem
The WebSphere® Application Server 6.1 and 7.0 installer is capable of installing the product in silent mode, which logs data about the installation into a temporary log file. Certain installation errors can cause the installer process to lose the temporary log file. This article explains the standard method of locating the log file, and also explains an alternative method of viewing the log file as the install process writes to it.
