Troubleshooting Data File Complications Overview
When your organisation is faced with troubleshooting data file complications within SapphireOne, it is essential to approach the situation methodically to identify and resolve the issues effectively. The following overview provides a structured process for troubleshooting data file anomalies:
- Missing Log File Alert – If SapphireOne cannot locate the log file, specify its location or check the default settings to ensure it is stored correctly.
- Data File Corruption – If you suspect data file corruption, restore the data from a backup and consult with SapphireOne support for further assistance.
- Server Upgrade Issues – After a server upgrade, ensure that the Settings folder is present and that the server reads the stored settings to maintain backup procedures.
- Journal File Size Concerns – If the journal file size becomes unwieldy, consider performing a full 4D backup to reduce its size and consult with SapphireOne staff for optimal management.
- Data File Access Errors – Ensure that the Live Data File is accessed from its designated folder and not directly from the desktop to avoid errors.
When the SapphireOne Server is launched under macOS or Windows, a graphical administration window is available to administrators. This provides various powerful analysis and control tools. Complete documentation for all functionality of the SapphireOne server administration window is currently available at developer.4d.com. In addition, the Data Explorer web interface, which can be accessed from the SapphireOne server administration by navigating to Window > Data Explorer in Browser, provides a facility to view, query, and edit data in your project datastore. The SapphireOne Information Report is also a valuable troubleshooting tool to consider.
