Error while creating log file

Siemens · DAsl Diagnostics and Alarms

What does 61428 mean?

The system encountered an error when attempting to create a log file. This can be caused by an excessive number of log files in the current directory (more than 99, Error code A) or by existing log files being too large (Error code B). This prevents the system from recording operational data or events, hindering diagnostics and traceability.

Complete Troubleshooting Guide

  1. 1

    Reduce the number of log files in the current directory by renaming or deleting older files.

  2. 2

    Check the maximum length parameter for protocol files (MD11420 $MN_LEN_PROTOCOL_FILE) and adjust if necessary.

  3. 3

    Verify available storage space on the logging device or system drive.

  4. 4

    Check file system permissions for the log directory to ensure write access.
