    A log file is part of a project. So, what you need to do is run TestComplete and then open the project from the location where you are running your project through TestExecute.  

    OR... copy over the entire project folder from where you are using TE into your TC environment and open your project from there. 

     

    In short, you cannot open the log file directly via either TE or TC, you need to open the project and then view the results within the project.

    I am not 100% sure what happen, but I thought I had TC and TE both open the same project suite. Well, I only have a 1 project suite anyway, so it is unlikely I made a mistake there.

     

    As for the solution, I cleared out all TC logs, then restarted TC, all sudden my logs appear. TC can open 5G logs, no problem.

     

    Thank you very much for help.
