Downloading TrueLog Files

Error listings offer the option of downloading .wrt files and .xlz TrueLog files. .wrt files contain information that is written with write and writeln Silk Performer script commands.

TrueLog information is tracked to support root-cause analysis of reported errors. TrueLog files can be downloaded as WinZip archives (extension .zip). "Zipped" TrueLog files are automatically extracted when opened with TrueLog Explorer and are recommended for use when limited bandwidth is an issue. You can click any monitor execution to display detailed diagrams that cover monitor-execution statistics such as page times, connection times, and handshake times. See the Working with Silk Performer section of the Introduction for details regarding TrueLog technology.

TrueLog files are only available when they are enabled in monitor settings. See Adding Monitors for details regarding enabling the writing of TrueLog files. Available TrueLog files are indicated with Download Files buttons.

To download a TrueLog file:

  1. Click the corresponding Download Files button (grayed-out Download Files buttons indicate that no files are available) of the execution you want to analyze. The TrueLog File download page appears, listing the name of the file that is available for download (either .xlg, .xlz, or .wrt).
  2. Click the Download button of the file you want to download. Alternatively, click the Download as Zip button of the file to download the file in WinZip archive format.
    Note: To view TrueLog files you must have TrueLog Explorer installed on your system. For details regarding TrueLog Explorer, see the TrueLog Explorer Help.
