How to Access Windows Okta Agent Installer Logs
Directories
Overview
This article will detail how to find Installer logs that are automatically written during any Okta Agent for Windows install (Okta RADIUS Agent, Okta Active Directory (AD) Agent, Okta LDAP Agent).
Applies To
  • Okta AD Agent
  • RADIUS Agent
  • LDAP Agent
Solution

The installer logs are found in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp or C:\Windows\Temp(for agent auto-update installer). Because "AppData" is a hidden folder, it is not normally visible. Here is a quick way to find the logs:

  1. Ensure that the user running the installer is logged in.
  2. Open Windows Explorer.
  3. In the address bar, type "%temp%" without quotes, and press ENTER.
    Windows Explorer 
  4. This shortcut will direct to the logged-on user's AppData\Temp folder.
    • In the address bar, if it shows a numbered folder in Temp, go up one folder level.
  5. Find the appropriate Okta Agent file using its creation timestamp.
