External Programs and Log Files : Logs Created from and to PSI

The logs folder contains HTML reports viewable via a web browser. A report is generated when a CAESAR II Neutral file is created, for example, when the Write data to file is clicked and when data is being brought back into PSI from CAESAR II, for example, when Read Stress File is clicked.

The HTML report which is produced during the creation of the Neutral file is called * _log.html. This contains information about the conversion from the *.xml file to the CAESAR II Neutral File. The _log.html contains version information for the .cii converter, and also any messages to do with the running of the conversion process. It also contains information about the AVEVA E3D™ elements translated, and any assumptions and default values used (for example missing weights or wall thicknesses). The stress engineer may find it useful to have a look at this file.

The HTML report which is produced during the creation on the return XML file is called *_RetLog.html. This contains information of the conversion process from a CAESAR II Neutral file, Stress Report and original XML file to a new XML file. The log gives information on what the conversion process has found and where, if any problems have occurred. Any Errors will be highlighted in Red, Warnings in Blue and Restraints in green.

These logs are a good place to look if anything goes wrong.
