location of client trace files sync'ed to the middleware

[Former Member]

Hi

In the documentation (link below) it is mentioned that trace files sync'ed from the client to the middleware can be opened with an editor (on the middleware) but where are the files located?

Thanks for any help,

Hi Andre,

The transaction ME_RTRACE is used to set the trace settings on the MI client instead of the user of the mobile device setting it. This is usually handled by the administrator. Just by setting this on the middleware will not get the trace on the middleware. The process is as follows:

The administrator makes the trace settings on the middleware. This is updated on the client device when that device makes a sync with the middleware. Now if the administrator wants to see the trace file then he has to activate the checkbox - Send with Next sync or the user on the mobile device can select the option - Send trace to server.

This trace can be viewed in CCMS. For this go to transaction RZ11 - Mobile Infrastructure - Logs and traces.

Here you can do a select for the particular device which you are interested in.

Hi Nameeta,

thanks for the info.

I know how to switch on the trace on the client and how to use the "send to server" functionality on the client.

Since I haven't set up CEN and CCMS on my little test system, I wanted to look at the trace file with an editor on OS-System level, as it is mentioned in the documentation.

Any ideas, how to do that?

Cheers, Andre

Hi Andre

The trace files and log files are present within the your <MI Home>/log folder i.e for example C:\Program Files\SAP Mobile Infrastructure\log folder.

Hope this helps

Sorry, my bad that I did not explain my problem well.

I am looking for the place on the middleware where the trace file ends up, when it is sync'ed from the client to the middleware.

Hi Andre,

This is visible only in CCMS. But as you have not configured CCMS, you can execute some reports which in actual are called by CCMS internally.

Just check if this is what you want.

Go to SE38 & execute these reports:

ME_CL_ERROR_ANALYSIS_2

ME_CL_ERROR_ANALYSIS

Hope this helps.
