Log

Top  Previous  Next

The "Log" tab provides detailed information on the indexing process. You should evaluate these messages to determine what files have been indexed, what files have not been indexed (and why), and any other possible issues to address during indexing.

You can now toggle the message types to be displayed on-the-fly. This will help you track down errors easier.

Note that some these settings may not be available if you have configured the Index Log mode (on the "Index Log" panel of the Configure tab) to "Basic".

Click the “Show all” button to quickly check all options or “Reset to default” to return the log settings to the default options.
