explanation

A minimal reproducible project set

 

Priority: [Most important]

Please send us a complete set of project files that can reproduce the problem.

 

By sending us a reproducible project, we will be much more likely to be able to identify the cause of the problem quickly.

 

Please be sure to delete any information that could identify you, such as your personal information or information specific to your facility, before sending the project. We will not use the project you send for any purpose other than investigating the problem, but we ask that you take this into consideration as a measure to prevent information leaks.

 

Crash dump files

 

Priority: [Important]

 

If any Windows crash dump files have been created, please collect and send us the complete set of those files.

 

If you experience an abnormal termination of our application, sending us a crash dump may help us to resolve the issue more quickly.

 

This log file will be created in the folder specified by "Crash dump output settings".

 

Output Log

 

Priority: [High]

 

The output log is a log that records the operation status of FA-Server and is the information that is displayed in the output view of FA-Server.

 

This log file will be created in the folder specified by "Output log save settings".

 

Please focus on collecting and sending information covering approximately two days before and after the problem occurred.

 

System Log

 

Priority: [High]

 

The system log is a log that records information about the operating environment of FA-Server. The system log records information such as resource usage (memory usage, page file usage, number of handles, etc.), whether Send mail terminated abnormally, and whether it automatically restarted when it terminated abnormally.

 

If any log files have been created in the specified folder, please collect and send all of those files.

 

This log file is created in the following location:

 

FA-Server

For FA-Server, the log will be created in the folder specified by "System log storage settings".

 

FA-Client

It will be created in the following folder:

 

C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Roboticsware\FA-Server6\client\log\systemlog

 

*Drive letters such as "C:" may vary depending on the actual installation environment.

 

 

Collecting Windows event logs

 

Priority: [Medium]

The log data of the "Event Viewer," which is a standard feature of Windows, records hardware problems, software driver malfunctions, and other issues.

 

You can start the Event Viewer in the following ways:

1.From the Windows Start button, select "Run".

2.Enter eventvwr.

 

The event log contains useful information, particularly when investigating whether or not there are any hardware problems such as network failures or hard disk malfunctions. Please save the following event log as data and send it to us by email or other means.

 

"Windows Logs" - "System" logs

"Windows Logs" - "Application" Logs

 

To save the log data, you can use the "Save As" menu in the Event Viewer. For information on how to operate the Windows event log, please refer to the Windows help or the Microsoft website.
