● The copied setup file is executed from the local temporary directory, e.g. D:
\Install39\Update.exe
● Log files are created after completion of the installation:
– The general log files are extended
– The setup-specific log file is created in the original setup directory F:\Setup and in the
local temporary directory D:\Install39
See: Log files (.log) (Page 118)
5.9.9 Log files (.log)
In order to be able to track which setup packages and updates have been installed at any time,
the activities of the PCU Installer are recorded in various log files.
Setup-specific log files
A separate setup-specific log file is created for each setup package that is executed by the
PCU Installer. The name of the setup and the name of the computer are entered in the file
name of the log.
Archiving The setup directory in which the associated setup file was originally
located, and (if copied by the setup) the local temporary directory.
File name The log file is designated according to the following scheme:
<Name of the setup file>@<Computer name>.log, e.g. Update@MyP‐
CU50.log
If you activate the checkSetupLogFile= setting in the "PCUInst.ini" configuration file
(Page 112), then the setup-specific log file prevents the same setup being installed several
times on the same computer. The check is performed based on the computer name and the
setup name.
In the delivery condition of the base software, this setting is deactivated. The setting should
remain deactivated for the series start-up of devices with the same name or for the repair of
an installation.
General log files
The general PCU Installer log files record the operation and the communication of the PCU
Installer client and PCU Installer service. There are therefore separate files for the client and
service.
