texte = Your ErrorTemplate.tmpl is writing the error log without 'thinking of' the file as a database. When you later view it as a database using a search criteria, it gets cached and never looks at the disk again. We purposely 'un-databased' it in order to reduce RAM overhead because some people were getting huge error logs sucked into RAM.Either do a [CloseDatabase] before viewing the log (to force a reload), or else change your template so that the log gets written as plain HTML (no longer a database), and view it directly from your browser as a plain HTML file without going thru WebCatalog.>Quick question on the Admin stuff in the WebCat 2.0.1 ACGI (Mac).
