Where are the logs? (Commerce Scale Unit SEALED - self hosted)

Posted on by Community Member

I've installed the self-hosted Commerce Scale Unit using the SEALED installer. I'm trying to troubleshoot something after activating a register device on this retail channel, and I can't seem to find any logs in the Event Viewer on the Commerce Scale Unit box anymore. They used to be under "Applications and Services Logs > Microsoft > Dynamics > Operational". There no longer is a "Dynamics" folder under "Microsoft" anymore.

Have the location of the logs for the CSU moved to a new location in Windows?

The logs location is outlined in the section Troubleshooting.

Thanks Sergey. Do you know why MS decided to put the logs there for the CSU? I noticed that the Store Commerce logs still have their own folder under the Microsoft folder.

Also they have reduced the logging level to "error" only for Sealed Commerce Unit. I had to manually change the logging level as I was facing an issue with activation.

It is just a matter of time when Store Commerce Installer will catch-up with Sealed CSU Installer in terms of deploying a product logging into the same location as the Sealed CSU does.

That was done for the RS (and this is the direction we are moving to for all on-prem installers) deployed by the new Sealed CSU because it was migrated from ETW to EventLog since working with ETW is more complex and requires generating a manifest at the compile time and then the manifest registration at the deployment time.
