Several iOS apps save session logs called SESSION files. Typically, SESSION files log bugs users encounter. Developers use SESSION files to troubleshoot issues. View your device’s SESSION files to see session information.
A SESSION file stores session data. CATIA software uses SESSION files for model work sessions. PHP web apps store session data in SESSION files. Firefox uses a different SESSION file for its Session Manager add-on. Sticky Notes uses a SESSION file for its SQLite3 database. Scratch Live emulates vinyl records and saves sessions in SESSION files.
For local logging, Cisco IOS saves syslog messages to a buffer on the device. View these messages with the “show logging” command. The buffer size default is 8192 bytes. When full, older logs get overwritten. Increase buffer size with the “logging buffered ” command. Enable remote login via SSH or telnet with the “logging monitor ” command.
By default, Cisco IOS logs to the console, monitor, and syslog. But no syslog host exists, so output only goes to the console. For troubleshooting, Cisco IOS allows detailed debugging of all processes. But use debug commands carefully since they severely impact performance.
We released the scripts to the community for download from the given link. Execute required commands in your Putty session, logged automatically to the specified directory. Split log files using regular expressions as follows. Assume a single log file contains multiple command outputs with the default Cisco IOS prompt. Then split files with the “\S+#” regular expression using Python’s re.split() function.
An Appium plugin provides complete test logs and video recording for easy test debugging. It features full webdriver session API call logs, a live video stream of the test, Android and iOS device logs, Android app profiling, and Android network logs.
Logs give a brief overview of what and when things happened. This applies to both production and lab environments. So we continue configuring logging on Nokia SR OS and Cisco IOS XR. I won’t explain what logs I won’t cover.
Apple introduced os_log to provide a better universal logging system, superseding the outdated Apple System Logger. It features expected modern logging capabilities: Categorization and filtering via log levels, subsystems and categories; Privacy via dynamic data obfuscation; Usability via calling info collection and Console.app integration; Performance via efficient storage and correlation.
If an app crashes on a user’s iOS device, Apple sends the crash log to the developer. Or developers can get crash logs directly from a physical device by crashing their app, then connecting the iPhone/iPad to a Mac. Open Xcode, click Window > Devices and Simulators, then view logs.
