Smartertrack Chat - Chat losing connection to server
Question asked by Adam De Lay - 3/16/2018 at 8:06 AM

Where are the log files for smartertrack chat?  We seem to have several customers each day who start a chat, then navigate to a different page and they seem to lose connection back to the smartertrack server.  Would like to investigate prior to opening up a ticket.
 
We're using ST 13.1.6632.18620
 
Thanks,

Hi, Adam. All of the logs kept by SmarterTrack are found here when you're logged in with an Admin role:
 
Settings --> Tools --> Diagnostics. The Errors.log for a particular day may have errors in it. That said, if it's an issue with embedded chat, they might not be logged. If you can get client-side errors from a browser with dev tools open, that would be a good start. If your customers can't do it, can you replicate the issues?

Derek,

I'm forced to look into this issue again.  We're still having issues with chats being disconnected with our customers.  No one has found a pattern yet of a specific page the customer is on or a specific browser that's being used.  I can look back through old chats and see several chats in a row with the same person because something has disconnected them.  Since we cannot replicate the issue, client-side testing is not available.  There has to be some kind of server-side log which gives more information as to why the disconnects keep happening.  Is there some SignalR logging we can enable?

Adam
