Use environment variables in rolling-flat-file log path

Environment variables can be specified in the path and/or file name when creating or editing a rolling flat file log configuration. This ensures that logs from separate computers or multiple instances of Interpret running on a single computer are put in separate files.

  • %COMPUTERNAME% - use when logs are placed in a shared location on the network. This ensures that a separate sub-folder is created under the shared location with the name of the computer where the log originated.

  • %APPLICATION% - use when you want to separate log files for events from the Kofax ReadSoft Invoices Manager and Interpret modules. A separate sub-folder is created in the specified path for both modules.

  • %PID% - use when running multiple instances of the Interpret module on the same computer. A new log is generated each time the Manager or an instance of the Interpret module is started on a computer. The name of the log file includes the process identification number (PID) for the process that is running ReadSoft Collector.

  • %DATE% - use when you want a new log file to be created every day at midnight.
