    Having a small problem and would like some advice on what to do.

    I have been having a problem with WHS so I wanted to submit a report.  Before doing this I wanted to send the diagnostic data to MS and get the CAB number.  When I ran the tool (Settings->Toolkit->Support tab -> Send->Collect and Send) I got the error:

    TALQ threw exception Could not find file ‘C:\Documnets and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp\2\CabId.log’.

    When I click OK it just stops so I have not uploaded my diagnostic data or attained a CAB.

    Checked for the file manually and it does not exist.

    Any ideas on what I should do?

    For those of you that are experiencing a Toolkit issue ... fortunately there is another method.

     

    Zip this folder and upload it with your bug.

    Thanks, tried searching but did not come up with much (don't think I was searching for the right stuff).  Will get going on submitting the problem report with logs attached.  Might not be able to upload for a few days as my net is currently running slow, but will give it a go.

    Unless you are refering to a little country town in QLD Austraila then no.  Also no if you were but at least you would be close.
