Self.Hosted Windows Runner have no log

Question

Hi all,

First of all I am very new to the pipeline/runner and trying to make sure of it.

I am currently having a PoC on self.hosted windows runner, however, the pipeline failed somehow

When I try to check on the web UI, there's a message (with an exclamation mark) saying "failed to download log".

I now have no idea how to check what's failed (as the log file is being cleared after the build step on the server too).

Any one can give me some hints on what I did wrong here?

Thank you very much.

Thanks for your reply.

I found all the log files on the server is being cleaned up after every build.

I try to quickly copy out the files while the runner is working but it's hard to capture the file as it appears real quick and then gone..

And i am just running a simple dot net build script currently.
