Log File
The
bn_bomprocess
program automatically appends a copy of all its output
(including when run via
docmgr, bnw_docmgr
,
mechbom
, or
xcelbom
) to the
file
bn_bomprocess.log
, which it creates automatically if it does not already
exist.
The log file is a very useful diagnostic tool if something goes wrong with the
bn_bomprocess
. When asking for help, be sure to include the location of this
file.
For example:
BN BOMprocess [X0.62 (120997)]
Appending to logfile: bn_bomprocess.log
