How to collect the logs if the application doesn't open Settings page

If UNIVERGE BLUE™ SHARE doesn't allow you to open Settings page or you can't run the application at all, you can try to obtain the report file manually.

1. Make sure that UNIVERGE BLUE™ SHARE File Server application is not running.
2. Press and hold the Control key.
3. Start UNIVERGE BLUE™ SHAREFileServer application.
4. Wait for 5-10 seconds and release the Control key. UNIVERGE BLUE™ SHARE File Server will start creating diagnostic report and will show a progress window.

Note: this diagnostic report will contain less information that the normal one, so try to collect the normal one from the settings window first.

How to find the logs on the machine

If you want to analyze the logs yourself, to find the logs:

1. Press Windows + R key or type Run in the Start menu and press Enter. Run dialog box will appear.
2. Type %ProgramData% into this box (case is not important) and click OK.
   
   
3. ProgramData folder will open in explorer.
4. The logs are located in UNIVERGE BLUE™ SHARE File Server folder
   
   

Note: diagnostic logs are located in the C:\ProgramData\UNIVERGE BLUE™ SHAREFileServer\Service\Logs 
or in the C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\UNIVERGE BLUE™ SHAREFileServer\Service\Logs directory.

Read the Knowledge Base article on UNIVERGE BLUE™ SHARE: How Do I Analyze Diagnostic Logs? for more information.

If you need assistance, either compress the UNIVERGE BLUE™ SHARE folder or send diagnostic report to UNIVERGE BLUE™ and contact Support.

Note: the compressed folder can be large (20-50 mb).
