Administration\Logs. IBM® SPSS® Data Collection desktop applications such as IBM® SPSS®
Data Collection Base Professional usually write their log files elsewhere.
If you install a mixture of Interviewer Server Administration and desktop applications on a
machine, it makes sense to have all the log files written to the same location, and the Interviewer
Server Administration Logs folder becomes the central location for all log files. The product
installation programs deal with this automatically, but there may be times when you need to make
some additional changes.
Any user who is a member of the Data Collection group has permissions to write to files in the
Logs folder. All Interviewer Server Administration activities are run by the anonymous user.
The anonymous user is a member of the Data Collection group and therefore log messages can
be written by all Interviewer Server Administration activities. Desktop application users (for
example, users of Base Professional) are not necessarily members of this group and may not have
permission to write to the Logs folder. Therefore, you may sometimes need to add desktop users
to the Data Collection group. There are two situations when you will need to do this:
You install IBM® SPSS® Data Collection Interviewer Server, IBM® SPSS® Data
Collection Survey Tabulation, or IBM® SPSS® Data Collection Survey Reporter
onto a machine that already has Base Professional installed. The installation
procedure modifies the registry so that log files for all Data Collection products go to
[INSTALL_FOLDER]\IBM\SPSS\DataCollection\6\Interviewer Server Administration\Logs.
You install Base Professional onto a machine that already has Interviewer Server, Survey
Tabulation, or Survey Reporter installed. Since the Interviewer Server Administration Logs
folder is already set as the logging folder, the application's installation program does not
change the registry settings.
Follow these steps to add a user to the Data Collection group on machines on which Base
Professional is installed:
