Problem
You need to turn on debugging for the Common Client component of Symantec Client Security 3.x or Symantec Endpoint Protection 11.x.
Solution
To gather debug information, create a folder on the Windows partition and then import a registry file.
To debug Common Client
- On the Windows partition, create a folder named CCdebug at the root of the drive.
For example, create the folder C:\CCdebug. - Double-click the CCdebugON.reg file to begin gathering debug information. IMPORTANT: Reboot after importing CCdebugON to fully enable logging.
- Reproduce the problem that you are troubleshooting.
- Double-click the CCdebugOFF.reg file to stop gathering debug information. IMPORTANT: Reboot after importing CCdebugOFF to disable logging.
If you plan to send the results to Symantec Technical Support, zip the entire CCdebug directory and attach it to your e-mail correspondence.
