Java Log Is Not Created on Terminal Server (253865)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition

This article was previously published under Q253865

SYMPTOMS

Microsoft Internet Explorer has an advanced option to create a log file for logging Java errors that are encountered by Internet Explorer when the browser visits a Java-enabled Web site. This creates a log that is stored in the %SystemRoot%\Java folder. However, when you are using Internet Explorer on Terminal Server and you enable this option, the log file is not created.

RESOLUTION

When you enable this advanced option in Internet Explorer while you are using Terminal Server, the creation of the Java folder is mapped to the user's space, or to the %SytemRoot%\Profiles\Username\Windows folder instead of the %SystemRoot% folder. To resolve this issue, simply create the Java folder in the %SytemRoot%\Profiles\Username\Windows folder.
