VisiBroker 5.2.1: osagent.log file is empty when running osagent -v

Problem:

  • Product Name: VisiBroker
  • Product Version: 5.2.1
  • Product Component: osagent (Smart Agent)
  • Platform/OS Version: Windows

When osagent is run in verbose mode, i.e. osagent -v, the generated "osagent.log" file is empty.

Resolution:

This is a known issue with VB 5.2.1, where the "osagent.log" file generated, will be empty.

The output needs to be redirected to a file as follows:

> osagent -v > osagent.log

If osagent is started as a Windows service, then the options that need to be set to the osagent for the verbose log output are as follows:

> osagent -v l oa

Then the verbose output will be sent to a file named osagent.log file. This log file is created by default in the %TEMP% in Windows, if no environment variable is set for that. Please see "osagent -?" for usage and the visibroker environment variables that can be set.
