If the request succeeds, a transaction success message is written to the QuarkXPress Server transaction
log file. This message includes the date, time, request type, project name, response type, response
size in bytes, and client IP address. For example:

If any alert is displayed, an error message is written to the QuarkXPress Server Error Log file. The
transaction entry in an error log contains the date and time of the request, the error code, and the
error message. The following is a sample of an error log transaction entry:
8/3/2005 11:27:24 — Error — Error Code: 10008 — The renderer for this image type has no way
