How to find Log Files and Diagnostic Reports

Simulation log files and diagnostic reports are essential for troubleshooting issues when using our simulations.

If you've been experiencing an issue and needing to submit a ticket with a log file. This article will guide you on how to locate these on either Windows or Mac.

This article assumes you have one of the following applications installed and that it has been run for the first time: "Birthing," "Radiation Safety," or "Radiography”

The player log and diagnostic report will be created for the last run of the application. So if you have reproduced a bug that you would like to troubleshoot, make sure you do not start the application again before copying the log files. 

Windows

Step 1: Locate the Virtual Medical Coaching Log Folder

Open File Explorer: Press Win + E or click on the File Explorer icon in the taskbar to open File Explorer.

Navigate to the following folder replacing <YourUsername> with your actual username

C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\LocalLow\Virtual Medical Coaching
Replace <YourUsername>

Step 2: Locate the Log Files

Open the folder that corresponds with the simulation that you are trying to troubleshoot.
They should be called "Birthing," "Radiation Safety," or "Radiography"

./Library/Logs/Virtual Medical Coaching/RadiationSafety

 

Step 2: Locate the Log Files

Open the folder that corresponds with the simulation that you are trying to troubleshoot.

Find the Player.log File:

Additional tips:
If you are still having difficulty locating your log files in the above locations you can try the following terminal command:


Find . -name ‘Player.log’


This will output the location of any Player.log file on your system. Locate the path of the log file that corresponds with the simulation you are trying to troubleshoot. Then use finder or the terminal to navigate to the location output by the Find command.


 

That's it! You can now you can copy these files and attach them when submitting your troubleshooting information
