Understanding and Viewing Dimension Build and Data Load Error Logs

The dataload.err log contains errors that occurred during a dimension build or a data load. The logs also contain the records that failed to load. After you fix the errors, you can reload the logs. See Loading Dimension Build and Data Load Error Logs.

Essbase Server writes errors that occur during a dimension build or data load to the following error logs:
