Logs
The Logs screen displays details for each of the debug log files stored on the LiveCompare server. It allows you to download log files or monitor log files in real time while LiveCompare is running. LiveCompare Administrators can access the Logs screen by selecting Browse Logs in the Configuration – Logging screen.
The Logs screen uses a Data Grid to display the log files. It sorts the entries in descending date order and lists the most recently created log file first. Click 
if required to refresh the display.
Each entry in the table represents a log file stored in the <LiveCompare user data dir>\public\logs folder on the LiveCompare server.
The Data Grid table has the following columns:
