  * Was there any upgrade recently?

==== 1.3. Where to upload files when requested to do so? ====
There's an FTP server at your disposal, where you can upload files to Produmex. This way you can send large files (log files, database backups...) that don't fit in an e-mail.

The FTP access for upload is //write-only//, which means that you can upload any file, but you cannot download anything from that folder (not even the files **you** uploaded!). Only Produmex staff is able to retrieve uploaded files.

The credentials are the following:

  * __Host:__ ftp.produmex.name
  * __User name:__ upload
  * __Password:__ Avaya789

After having uploaded a file to the FTP server, please inform the Produmex staff that the upload has completed, including the file name and the support ticket reference, if any.

==== 1.4. Error Messages on Terminals====
  * SBO Error Messages - Produmex scanners will display SBO error messages, so make sure to read the error message and determine if it is an SBO error or a Produmex error. If it’s an SBO error message, please Google it and use your current process for solving SBO errors before reporting to Produmex.  
  * Produmex Error Messages – In most cases the Produmex error message will give you an indication of what the problem is to make it easier to solve like any other SBO error message.

==== 1.5. Conflicts with other Addons ====
A common complaint goes as follows: “We’re getting an error message from another addon but when we turn off Produmex the error message goes away, so it must be Produmex, right?”

In more cases than not it is the add-on that displays the error message that is the source of the problem.


==== 1.6. How to enable extra logging? ====
If you want to enable extra logging for debugging purposes, you can enable it in the following ways: 

=== 1.5.1. Produmex Service Broker===
You can enable extra logging on the service configuration screen. Set the //Debug writeline log?// setting to ‘True’. Restart Produmex Service Broker.

The log file is located: //C:\ProgramData\BX\BX Service Broker\Logs//

{{ :implementation:scan:support:sb_debug.png |}}

//It is recommended to disable this setting after the issue is discovered because it can create large log files. //

=== 1.5.2. Produmex Manufacturing Add-On===
You can enable extra logging on the [[implementation:manufacturing:confguide#logs_tab|Logs tab]] of Produmex Manufacturing Settings. Set the //Logging Level// to ‘Debug (everything)’.

The log file is located: //%AppData%\BX\Logs//
