Default Location of Kofax Capture or Transformation Modules Installation Log Files
Issue
Where is the default location of the MSI/MSP installation log files for Kofax Capture or Transformation Modules?
Solution
The default location is the installing user's temp folder as defined by the Windows system TEMP
Environment Variable.
The easiest way to determine this is:
- Open a command shell (cmd)
- Type "SET TEMP" and press Enter key
The output will show:
TEMP=C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Temp
It is also possible to open under the installing user the file explorer and insert %temp% which should also direct to the very same folder.
To force a major installation to create a logfile with following command:
msiexec /i "<PRODUCT>.msp" /L*v "%temp%\logfile.log"
It is also possible to run patch installation setup with following command:
msiexec /p "<PATCH>.msp" /L*v "%temp%\logfile.log"
Open the file explorer and move to this location to find the related installation log files.
