Log files open totally blank by lrpontes on 06-02-2007 at 04:14 AM
My log files are blank.
these files have a content. but when i open a log encriped or not, it's opened normally, deencriped too, but the read right panel is totally blank, in every contact ou month...
the file has a size normally, and always work,
Yesterday I use norton ghost to copy my entire data disk to another bigger disk, but the copy was complete sucessfully...

It can take a while before the log is displayed because first the log needs to be decrypted (in case you have encryption on) and then needs to be parsed. With big logs this can even be as long as a minute (depending on the speed of your computer).
Did you waited long enough?

yeah, I wait, but nothing happened..
the log program open normally as with content
but nothing is show..and the log files has content.
when I open with notepad for example, all content is showed
The question is:
Why my log reader do not show the content of my log files, open normally but not show the content?
tks

I think it could be because the logs are in a different folder, so the log reader won`t find them, only an idea 
RE: Log files open totally blank by lrpontes on 06-04-2007 at 02:51 PM
The log s are in the same folder that before...
but tks,
Any another idea?

You could try to decrypt them using a command-line and check if the output is right?
code:Copy the .ple file to your desktop (so if something goes wrong you still have an original) and try that in a Run command. (Start > Run...) If you're on a 64-bit system, you might want to use %ProgramFiles(x86)% instead, or use the normal path (C:\Program Files (x86)\...).
"%ProgramFiles%\Messenger Plus! Live\Log Viewer.exe" /Decrypt="C:\insert\path\to\mylog.ple" /Pwd="secret"

Sorry to revive this thread, but...
Irpontes, what exactly worked?
I mean, your reports don't make much sense. You say your log files are in the same directory as before (So, I don't see how Mattike's solution could have helped in that case, it wouldn't make a difference, it would only have helped if you got an error message saying your password is incorrect, and thus only with encrypted logs)...
You say you can see them listed in the left panel of the log viewer (which again indicates that they are in the normal log directory, otherwise they wouldn't even be listed in the first place)...
You say they open in the log viewer (aka, you don't have any error message when you double click them in the left panel)...
You only said they don't show any content in the right panel of the log viewer...
So something isn't right here...
