Problem

Outlook Connector for JIRA on Outlook start creates a file adxloader.log in the directory %TEMP%\Outlook Connector for Jira\. For any reason, you want to change the location of adxloader.log file.

Solution

Do the following to change the location of adxloader.log:

  1. Create a backup of the file %LOCALAPPDATA\Outlook Connector for Jira\adxloader.dll.manifest

  2. Edit the file adxloader.dll.manifest with an text editor of your choice.

  3. Add the tag <logFileLocation> as shown in the following lines:

    <loaderSettings generateLogFile="true" shadowCopyEnabled="false" privileges="user" configFileName="App.config" >

    <logFileLocation>C:\temp</logFileLocation>

    </loaderSettings>

    Alternatively, you can set the parameter generateLogFile to false if you do not need a log file:

    <loaderSettings generateLogFile="false" shadowCopyEnabled="false" privileges="user" configFileName="App.config" >

    </loaderSettings>

  4. Save the file and close your text editor.
