Hi Everyone,

Do any one knows that on Windows Mobile 6, Where does Pocket Outlook logs
information ? In a File or is there some thing similar to "Event Log" on the
device ?

I need to trouble shoot ...

Thanks in advance.

Pocket Outlook doesn't keep a log file on the device. What specific
information do you need?

Does it put the logs at the server ...?

I need to know the log entry, when the sync. for contacts and mails fails on
the device. I was under an impression that Pocket Outlook would be logging
information in case of error, like normally other applications do.

Thanks Peter,

I am new to Windows Mobile development. Thanks for your response.

I need to know the log entry, when the sync. for contacts and mails fails on
the device. I was under an impression that Pocket Outlook would be logging
information in case of error, like normally other applications do.

There are a number of possibilities then:
1) If not on device, does Pocket Outlook put the logs at the server ?
2) Is there any "Event Log" kind of thing (as on the Desktop Windows),
where applications can log the error info ?

Another, basic question is how to track, debug and troubleshoot any
preloaded application (System application like ActiveSync, Pocket Outloook
etc) when some error occurs. There should be some logging/notification
mechanism for troubleshooting.

Thanks Again,

In Windows Mobile 6 in Outlook I go to:

Menu / Tools / Options / Outlook E-Mail / (Next) / Advanced

There is a drop-down for "Event Logging", with options for None, Brief or Verbose.

I always get "Error Synchronizing" when I attempt to connect to the Exchange server. I turned the logging to Verbose to get more info but ... I have no idea where this log is.

So if "Pocket Outlook doesn't keep a log file on the device", as you say, then what is this setting for?

Help! I want to read my email!

I'd say that posting here is probably not the best place. Try
microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync and, for goodness sake, give some
details. We don't know what device,what version of Exchange, etc.
