Troubleshooting Tableau trusted authentication
According to Tableau trusted authentication troubleshooting guide (http://onlinehelp.tableausoftware.com/v7.0/server/en-us/trusted_auth_trouble_1return.htm), logs of trusted authentication (including why a request is rejected) are stored inside
C:\ProgramData\Tableau\Tableau Server\data\tabsvc\logs\wgserver
which is wrong. It costed me a few hours to figure out, the logs was actually here:
C:\ProgramData\Tableau\Tableau Server\data\tabsvc\logs\vizqlserver\vizal*.logWritten by Alan Ho

Hi,
I am using Tableau Server 8.0 , even i couldn't find the above location C:\ProgramData\Tableau\Tableau Server\data\tabsvc\logs\wgserver as well as C:\ProgramData\Tableau\Tableau Server\data\tabsvc\logs\vizqlserver\vizal*.log
Can you pls suggest on this .

Thanks! This definitely helped me find where the logs were actually being written. Spent several hours stumbling around based on the Tableau docs. Found the logs at C:\ProgramData\Tableau\Tableau Server\data\tabsvc\logs\vizqlserver\vizql*.log for version 8.1
Hope that helps.
