Enabling Debug Mode

If errors occur while using Docusnap, you can trace them. Check the Enable Debug Mode option in the Options dialog to log errors in the database. You have the option to either log all program events or exceptions only.

The data can be saved to a file and sent to Docusnap support using the Support Information function in the Help area.

To delete all existing debug information from the database, click the Reset Log button on the General page of the Options dialog.

Enabling the Debug Mode for Docusnap Server

The Docusnap Server is required to schedule network scans, documentation creation processes, notifications, etc. to be performed automatically at a later time. To be able to analyze errors, the debug mode for the Docusnap Server component must be enabled.

You can do so in the Configuration wizard for the Docusnap Server. To set the desired level of debugging, you can select either Log everything or Exceptions only from the Debug Level dropdown list. The storage location is set to Database. Clicking the Reset Log button will delete all existing error information from the database.
