FieldDescription
Client/Server and Standalone Deployments

The ServerDebugLog.xml log file is created only on the application server in an n-Tier deployment.

N-Tier Deployment

The file is created on the application server. The location of the file depends on the Windows account used to run the Cobra service. Cobra requests the location of the My Documents folder from Windows, and creates the file in the Deltek\Cobra\Logs subfolder of the location returned by Windows.

Typical default locations of this file on the application server are as follows:

  • <Service Account User>\\My Documents\\Deltek\\Cobra\\Logs
  • <Default User>\\My Documents\\Deltek\\Cobra\\Logs
  • C:\\Deltek\\Cobra\\Logs

Turning the Log File On or Off

This log file is always created.

Logging SQL Statements

You can enable logging of SQL statements in the ServerDebugLog.xml log file in an n-tier deployment.

Logging of Memory Usage Details

Enabling the LogMemoryUsage option provides information to assist Deltek with troubleshooting issues relating to high memory consumption of the Cobra service on the application server.
