About accessing logs and exports
The Mobile Server Manager lets you quickly access the log file of the day, open the folder to which
logs files are saved, and open the folder to which exports are saved.
To open any one of these, right-click the Mobile Server Manager and select Open Today's Log File,
Open Log Folder or Open Export Folder respectively.
Important: If you uninstall Milestone Mobile from your system, its log files are not deleted.
Administrators with proper rights can access these log files at a later timer, or decide to delete them if
they are not needed any longer. The default location of the log files is in the ProgramData folder. If you
change the default location of log files, existing logs are not copied to the new location nor are they
deleted.
Edit certificate
If you want to use a secure HTTPS protocol to establish connection between your mobile device or the
XProtect Web Client and the Mobile server, you must have a valid certificate for the device or web
browser to accept it without warning. The certificate confirms that the certificate holder is authorized to
establish the connection.
When you install the Mobile server, you generate a self-signed certificate if you run a Typical
installation. If you run a Custom installation, you get the choice between generating a self-signed
certificate or loading a file containing a certificate issued by another trusted site. If you, at a later point,
want change the certificate you use, you can do this from the Mobile Server Manager.
1. Right-click the Mobile Server Manager and select Edit Certificate...
2. Choose whether you want to either:
o Generate a self-signed certificate or
o Load a certificate file.
Generate a self-signed certificate
1. Choose the Generate a self-signed certificate option and click OK.
2. Wait for a few seconds while the system installs the certificate.
3. Once finished, a window opens and informs you that the certificate was installed successfully.
The Mobile service is restarted for the changes to take effect.
