Debugging scripts, output to console

Example 1

--- Script start ---

if not exist c:\Logs md c:\Logs
net use \\sourceserver\robocopy /user:username password 1>c:\Logs\test.txt 2>&1

--- Script end ---

"1>c:\Logs\test.txt 2>&1"

"1>" To capture error output; specify a full path for the log file. If not it might end up in the System32 folder.

"2>" = re-direction in DOS Command Prompt (console)

Example 2

--- Script start ---

net use \\sourceserver\robocopy /user:username password 1> c:\output.txt 2> c:\error.txt
dir \\sourceserver\robocopy 1>> c:\output.txt 2>> c:\error.txt

--- Script end ---

Or to use one single log file:

--- Script start ---

net use \\sourceserver\robocopy /user:username password 1> c:\output.txt 2>&1
dir \\sourceserver\robocopy 1>> c:\output.txt 2>>&1

--- Script end ---
