Adobe Connect is about to get faster, smarter, and younger with the upcoming Adobe Connect 12 upgrade, scheduled for Spring, 2022.
With this new upgrade, Adobe Connect’s legacy, the Flash-based Classic View will reach its end-of-life. Customers will no longer be able to host or join Adobe Connect sessions using the Classic View.
If you haven’t transitioned your Flash-based content and rooms to the HTML-based Standard View, then now would be the right time , ahead of Adobe Connect 12 release.
For more information, see Adobe Connect Classic View End of Life (EOL).
Enable logging in the Adobe Connect application for desktop for versions 9 and 10.
The Adobe Connect Classic application for desktop or older Adobe Connect 8 meeting add-in has a built-in debugging feature. It is disabled by default, but can be enabled when required.
Note:
The Adobe Connect Standard View application now has logging enabled by default. The below instructions are only for enabling logging in the older application/add-in using Classic view.
Adobe Technical Support sometimes asks you to enable logging to assist them in troubleshooting a support request.
To enable logging in the application for desktop, follow the instructions below for the appropriate operating system:
Windows: Download the attached mms.zip file to the workstation where you want to enable logging. Extract the mms.cfg file and place a copy in: C:/Windows/system32/Macromed/Flash (32-bit Windows) and C:/Windows/SysWOW64/Macromed/Flash (64-bit Windows).
Download mms.cfg file to generate the logs on Windows OS.
Download
Mac OS: Download the mms.zip file to the workstation where you want to enable logging. Extract the file into this directory: MainDisk:Library:Application Support:Macromedia
Download mms.cfg file to generate the logs on mac OS
Download
Ubuntu: No mms file is required; the log is created automatically
Adobe Connect creates the log file the first time that you enter a meeting room. By default, the log file is named adobeconnectaddin.log, and is created in the following folders:
- C:/Users/{user}\Documents (Windows Vista and Windows 7)
- MainDisk:Users: (Mac OS)
- ~/ (Ubuntu)
The following configuration parameters can be edited in the mms.cfg file to control the logging functionality. Enable the SingleFileLogging parameter in mms.cfg file.

Usage |
|
PlayerLogging |
0 to disable, 1 to enable logging. |
|
SingleLogFile |
0 for multiple log files, 1 for a single log file. When set for multiple log files, the log filenames are appended with a timestamp. Therefore, there can be logs for multiple instances of the application. For every application, it creates a log file. Note: Multiple instances of the application are supported only on Windows. |
|
LogSizeLimit |
Number of kilobytes limit to the log file. Default is 1024 (1 MB). |
Note:
To get a good performance, enable logging only for debugging purposes. When not required, disable logging.
