Locating the Log Files

By default, Fortify Static Code Analyzer creates two log files in the following location:

• Windows: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Fortify\sca<version>\log
• Non-Windows: <userhome>/.fortify/sca<version>/log

where <version> is the version of Fortify Static Code Analyzer that you are using.

The following table describes the two log files.
