- The Produmex log files
- Produmex Service Broker: The log files can be found in the
%ProgramData%\Boyum IT\Service Broker

- When did it happen first?
- How many clients have this problem? (only one or more?)
- Was there any upgrade recently?
- Was there any major change in the system 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 Scanners
- 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. 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
It is recommended to disable this setting after the issue is discovered because it can create large log files.
1.5.2. Produmex Scan Client
You can enable extra logging on the Produmex Scan General tab of Produmex Scan settings. Add * to the Diagnostic Client Log settings field. Please note: The log file is sent after the user logged out.
The log file is located: C:\ProgramData\BX\BX Service Broker\Logs
1.5.3. Produmex Scan Add-On
You can enable extra logging on the Logs tab of Produmex Scan Settings. Set the Logging Level to ‘Debug (everything)’.
The log file is located: %AppData%\BX\Logs
1.6. How to check currently running processes
You can check the currently running processes on the webpages of the Service Broker:
Admin tasks
http://<IP>:<PORT>/api/Admin_tasks
where the IP is the IP address and the PORT is the port number.
Admin pools
http://<IP>:<PORT>/api/Admin_pools
where the IP is the IP address and the PORT is the port number.
