    Hi Sudhir,

    Try this instead:

    CCO.Logger.LogError('message');

    I'll file a doc issue to update the programmer's guide with the right sample.

    What we found was we had to add some config in the app setting file

    • Edit the appsettings.json from the directory of your Aras Innovator installation e.g.(C:\Aras29\Innovator\Innovator\Server\appsettings.json)

    • Update the LoggerConfiguration section from the appsettings.json with below code.

    • "LoggerConfiguration": { "MinimumLevel": { "Default": "Debug" }, "WriteTo": [ { "Name": "File", "Args": { "path": "Logs\Aras_Log.txt", "rollingInterval": "Day" } } ] },

    The log file mentioned here was later used by the logger

    pls note you will have to restart IIS

I don´t have an answer, but I support this question! All the mentioned updates regarding Server logging sound useful. I like the unified logs for the various sub servers. But so far I haven´t tested any of the logging features in I14.

Right now even the latest R33 programmers guide only lists the classic standard log function:

CCO.Utilities.WriteDebug("logFileName", "logMessage");

Out of interest: Do you get the mentioned depracted message when using this classic variant?
