You can access log information for GeoExpress encoding and publishing operations in the log folder or directly from the GeoExpress graphical user interface (GUI).
By default, text files containing log records are located in "My Documents\LizardTech\GeoExpress\9.5.4\logs". You can change the location of the log files in the Preferences dialog.
The log folder contains separate logs for completed encoding and completed publishing jobs. If there are no log files in the folder, it means no encoding or publishing jobs have been performed.
Encoding jobs are recorded in the "GeoExpress_log.txt" and "session_log.txt" files. "GeoExpress_log.txt" is a persistent log that is appended with each encoding operation the user runs, whereas "session_log.txt" is a temporary log that lists only the images that were encoded in the current job. It is overwritten upon each new encoding operation.
Publishing jobs are recorded in the "GeoExpressPublish_log.txt" and "publish_session_log.txt" files. As with their encoding counterparts, "GeoExpressPublish_log.txt" is a persistent record of publishing operations that grows over time, while "publish_session_log.txt" records only the last completed publishing job.
A description of recently completed encoding projects can be viewed on the Output tab for a selected job.
The session log appears.
TIP:If you select a job in the Job List while you view the Output tab, the session log only shows information about the selected job.
Click the Export Log button to save the session log for a selected job. You can export the session log to a CSV or TXT file.
Upon completion of a publishing operation, the text window of the Publish Images dialog reports the results of the publishing operation. This is the same information logged in the "GeoExpressPublish_log.txt" and "publish_session_log.txt" files.
You may wish to copy information from the log entry and paste it elsewhere. Use the standard Windows copy (Ctrl+C) and paste (Ctrl+V) shortcuts on any text in the Session Log text box of the Output tab.
You can print out the entire session log. This is the same information that is displayed on the Output tab.
To print the session log, do one of the following:
