Log file does not exist

Question

I have recently installed p6.8 and when I try to view my log after I have scheduled the project I get a message that my "SCHEDLOG.TXT does not exist", I've hit the elliptical button and created the file path that I want the file stored in but, when I try to view the log that is the message I get.

Before clicking on the Log tab, be sure that you have the process diagram selected in the panel above it. Inside the Log tab there is a refresh button inside the tab - be sure to click this button to refresh the view of the log file entries.
Your log file is stored where your project is stored. Not to be confused with the end user "Workspace", Eclipse (the IDE Studio uses) stores it's project is a folder also called the workspace. This is determined by the dialog box with the name of the file folder you select when Studio first initializes. You'll be able to find the log files for your project in this directory:
C:\<your Workspace folder>\<your project's name>\system
Finally, once you find your log file you'll notice hundreds of Engine DEBUG statements are stored in it that make diagnosing what is happening almost impossible. Take a look at this link to see how to resolve this problem.
