Polyglot & log-file

[Stefan Knappe]

Hi,

after I have installed polyglot and winboard I made some first tests with my engine. The fics-login was without any problems.

I started a first tiny match against Crafty. Matador played very well and fast. After approx. 60 moves Matador had consumed only 25% of its time. I thought, a short look into the log-files will show the problem.

Unfortunately I can't find any log-files. After I started to play with polyglot my engines finished to log anything.
My ini-files looks as follow:

Code: Select all

[PolyGlot]

EngineName = MatadorX
EngineDir = C:\Programme\Schach\Matador
EngineCommand = MatadorX.exe

Log = true
LogFile = Matador.log

Resign = false
ResignMoves = 3
ResignScore = 600

[Engine]

Hash = 64

NalimovPath = C:\TB
NalimovCache = 4

OwnBook = true


Do you have any ideas? Did I make something wrong?

Thanks for your help!

Stefan

Unfortunately I can't find any log-files. After I started to play with polyglot my engines finished to log anything.

The log file is created by PolyGlot and therefore can be found in the directory it was launched from.

The idea is that PolyGlot never modifies the engine directory by default.

Of course, you can always specify a full path.

Hi Fabien,

thanks for the fast responce! Of course your tool works perfectly.

As usual the bug was sitting in front of the screen.
