Log File Location for Primavera P6 Logs

After the Primavera P6 schedule has been loaded into PM Compass, log files are generated to indicate any errors or warnings that were encountered during the process. The log file name depends on the process or error. The prefix for each log file name is the project name.

The log files are stored in a <logs> folder (the folder name is whatever you chose to call it) on the application server in the location that you specified during the PM Compass installation. Every time a process is run, the existing log file is overwritten with a new file of the same name. You can use the Links tab to add an entry to the process logs. Clicking the link on the Links tab displays the most recent log file.

See the Deltek PM Compass Technical Installation Guide Integrating with Primavera P6 appendix for information about the folder security and other settings.

Exception Error

After the integration, if the process log contains this error: An exception occurred during the import process in Function ImportProject, you should confirm that your integration settings, as specified in the Integrating with Primavera P6 appendix of the Deltek PM Compass Technical Installation Guide, are correct.

Editing the Log File Location

You can view and edit the log file path on the File Folders tab in System Settings.
