The purpose of the log file is to help you identify any errors (and their possible causes) in performance during an indexing job.
In addition to reporting when the indexing job started and stopped, it also lists all files that were indexed, files that could not be found but were linked to, and even errors that might have occurred during the indexing process.
To view an index's log file, do the following:
Click View Log in the Action column of the index that you want to work with.
Review the contents of the log file and then either click your browser's Back button to return to the indexing Management page, or click Management in the left frame of the Web Search Manager.
