RVM logs

Overview

The entry point for an application running on OpenFin is the Runtime Version Manager (RVM), the RVM is responsible for managing the OpenFin Runtimes, application assets and bootstrapping the application.

The RVM creates a single* log file named rvm.log, located in:

The rvm.log file contains messages generated by the RVM and contains information about the launch of the application.  Application errors generated while the application is running will be written to the Runtime debug log.
