Hello all,

I am developing a NUI application in Visual Studio, and I am testing it on an emulator. For debugging purposes, I need to have access to the logs, however I don’t see any messages in the Device Manager, or in the Visual Studio Tizen Logs window, not even text log files. Please see screenshots below.

Note that there is not a single line of log output from the emulator.

In Visual Studio, the Tizen Logs window shows the deployment progress, but not any of the log messages that I have included in my code.

I have tried manually looking at the logs via sdb but the message I get is

PS D:\tizen-studio\tools> .\sdb.exe dlog
closed
- waiting for device -
closed
- waiting for device -
closed
- waiting for device -

and nothing happens, it just waits for the device indefinitely… 

Other things that I have tried with sdb are the following:

PS D:\tizen-studio\tools> .\sdb.exe shell
closed
closed

PS D:\tizen-studio\tools> .\sdb.exe get-state
device

PS D:\tizen-studio\tools> .\sdb.exe root on
Permission denied

It would be great if anyone had any suggestion on how to go about solving this issue. It should be a simple thing, but it’s taken up so mush of my time, and it is frustrating. I should say that I have successfully created developer certificates and uploaded them to my emulator via the Device Manager. I am able to deploy applications from Visual Studio on the emulator, and the applications work. But I still need to be able to log debug info…

Thank you in advance for your time.
