We will use a default location to store the log file. There is no browse feature for this log file you can use the default location or enter your own location. The default location will be:

The '''Verbose security tracing''' check box is when OLI requests extremely detailed data. This creates a extremely large file which may not be suitable for email. Use only as directed.

Locate the debug log file and send it to OLI or as directed.
