Unknown file "Alert1.log" growing at alarming rate

[GeorgeTuk]

Hi guys,

I have a file on my SBS 2003 server that is growing at about 10kb per second, thing is I have no idea what it relates to, I thought maybe you clever people would!?

Ok its called Alert1.log and the repeated message inside the log is just the following:

DataProcess.BatchPreprocess caused an error type 52. You are advised to report this error.

I have searched Google and nothing. All the usual services are functioning fine and I have not noticed any issues anywhere.

Any ideas, any help appreciated?

Download/run Process Monitor, this should give some insite.

Yes indeed, turns out it was the TIM.exe process which is call monitoring software for Avaya IP office.

Thanks for the tip...having a slow day!

Glad you found it..nice to have the phone system complicate your IT life. Just wait till the refrigerator and coffee maker are hooked into our systems <grin>.
