What is the CIQ_LOG.BAK file and how do I use it?

cmehmen over 4 years ago

I requested a user to send me the crash logs and they sent me the .BAK file and said there was no .YML file.

Questions;

does this mean a crash did not occur in my app? If yes what could have caused the crash and how do I find it?

what is the .bak file?

thanks in advanced

It means that the ynl has been uploaded to GC and then renamed, so that the same crash isn't uploaded again is my understanding.

You can open the bak file just like you can a yml file and see the crash logs.
