removing the colon crushed it. thanks
the reason i'm looking at this is the logging screen is not showing log content...last check shows the spinning wheel to the left. Time (Local) Level Core Logger Message No Events available Last Check:4/7/2017, 10:26:43 AM Google chrome, IE 10 and Firefox all show the same. What can I do to correct and see the logs?
