Troubleshooting
A general methodology for investigating issues with the 1E Service Catalog Connect app, as well as identifying key issues and their resolutions.
Logs
Log files for the software that 1E Service Catalog Connect works with can be very useful for troubleshooting. These include:
The 1E Client log
C:\ProgramData\1E\Client\1E.Client.log
This log confirms that the Tachyon instruction is executed to invoke the WSA wizard
This log gives details as to why the WSA wizard evaluation stages fail
Shopping web site log
C:\ProgramData\1E\Shopping\shopping.log
This log confirms that Shopping order details are being retrieved from the Shopping database
The ServiceNow MID server log
<installation files location>\agent\logs\agent0.log.0
This log confirms that the Shopping orders are being retrieved (or attempted to be retrieved) by ServiceNow from the Shopping web site
ServiceNow logs can also be useful for troubleshooting.
Logs node in 1E Service Catalog Connect
This log reports the status of the Shopping Sync job that brings Shopping order statuses into ServiceNow
When the job starts, a "Shopping sync started" message is recorded
If the job succeeds, "Last received orders count" and "Last received Maxrowversion" messages are recorded
If the job fails, "Shopping sync api HTTP error:401" or a similar message might be recorded. "401" indicates that the Shopping account is misconfigured, or IIS is misconfigured on the the Shopping server (for example, Basic Authentication is not enabled correctly)

These can be accessed from the 1E Service Catalog Connect→Administration→Logs menu item, as shown in the picture opposite, by a ServiceNow user assigned to the x_1e_service_catal.shopping_admin role.
Your technical report should contain:
All the log information from the Logs page
The version of ServiceNow (Kingston, London, or Madrid).
Tachyon information
The 1E Service Catalog Connect app integrates with Tachyon 4.1. To help determine the cause of technical problems Tachyon keeps a number of log files that report on the behavior of each component. All the Tachyon log files should be included in the technical report, please refer to Tachyon 8.1 - Log files for more details on the names and locations for these files.
The technical report should also contain the following information:
Version number of Tachyon
The OS, version number and patch level the Tachyon Server is installed on
The OS, version number and patch level for any relevant device running the Tachyon Agent.
You should then email the details of the problem encountered along with the above information to support@1e.com and a technical consultant will contact you to help find a suitable solution.
