Problem Description
I have the Blue Coat Reporter journal files open in a word processor; are there some tips for how or what I should see in
these?
What are some key word searches we could use to search through the journals of Reporter?

Resolution
The Reporter journal files are kept in a folder just off the root of the main Blue Coat folder, and are rotated through to the
next journal whenever they reach 5,121 KB.
In Linux, the default folder location is /op/bc/reporter/journal.
In Windows, the default folder location is c:/Program Files/Bluecoat Reporter 9/journals.
The following is a typical journal entry.
BCRJ:2009-09-23 14:37:21 (4aba6ae1) NOR.INFO.START
src/sg_main.cpp,625,HandleExternalStartupOptions
main_00001ae0(6880),,
Created the 'isready.txt' file to indicate an administrator exists
BCRJ - Blue Coat Reporter Journal.
2009-09-23 14:37:21 is the date and time down to the seconds.
NOR.INFO.START - NORstands for normal journal entry. Normal journal entries are not shown in the Reporter

interface. Entries that begin with ALW, such as ALW.ERRO.LOGSO, are shown.
ALW.INFO.START - INFO indicates that this is an informational message. Other possible entries are ERRO
(error) and WARN (warning).
ALW.INFO.START - STARTstands for which part of the code is telling us something. In this case, the Startup part
of the source code is printing out this message. Other code part options are LOGSO (log sources), AUTHE
(authentication), WEBSE (webserver), and DATAB (database).
The journal messages should be grouped according to what time they were printed out and what portion of the code
they came from. For example, even though you see a DATAB message printed in the journal at the same time as (in the
row above or below) an AUTHE message, it does not mean that they are related. In fact, the chances of a database error
and a authentication message being related are very remote.
There are two ways you can search for comments:
Open up each journal file, one by one, and search.
Position yourself at the root folder - mentioned above - and search all of the files for the below mentioned
keywords.
Here's what you see in a report journal on a successful startup, with comments in bold that explain each step:
The Isready file is created at the root of the Reporter install.
This comment declares that the file was found when Reporter first started after a fresh install. It also is indicative that
only the default admin user is configured. The file remains there for the duration of the Reporter installation, and this
message is only shown in the first journal.

can navigate down to <installed Drive>program Filessettingsdatabase and open up each cfg file, looking for their name,
in English, and then their hash name. The hash name often looks like this:
database_8b4e6220a87a11de8804f0004c9ba7ce. To search for activity on them them, such as loading or unloading,
use this name.

Failed to find web server protocol configuration

Suggested remediation: In the command line, run a nestat- a command to find out which application is using
this port, then stop that application. Or edit the Reporte preferences.cfg file and change it to use another port. See
KB3748 (https://kb.bluecoat.com/index?page=content&id=KB3748) for more details on how to troubleshoot this issue.

Reporter attempted to send an e-mail, but was turned down because of a bad password by the SMTP gateway. The
above message indicates a 235 code was expected, which would have meant success, but instead a 535 was received
(see inside the brackets), which means a bad password. Despite receiving a b ad password response, Reporter
attempts to log into the gateway without a password to see if it will send that way.
