Sending log files to PowerFolder Support
When our support requests the log files of PowerFolder Server, please make sure you include the log files from the date on which the problem occurred. Please also restart the server and send us the log file from the current date to check if there are any configuration problems. Those problems will mostly only occur, when the server is being restarted
