Troubleshooting
- If automation for either CatalogueLINK application is not running, check that the Scheduled Task is enabled.
- Open the "*_AUTO_PROCESSLOG.txt" files in CatalogueLINK's log directory and review the bottom (where the most recent logs are written) of the file to see what CatalogueLINK is reporting.
- If you see "Automation could not run because CatalogueLINK (GUI mode) was already running" it is because CatalogueLINK is already open and must be closed.
